Forever blue

 

Behind a bubble of glass—someone knocks and calls my name

Their voice is muffled

My hearing— dulled from the pain

 

I guess I’m here

But— not really

This melancholie ache

Means I cannot think clearly

 

People move with purpose

Their lives seem so together

While I’m stuck down a dark well

That goes on forever

 

Others say they’ve been there

And that they know how it feels

But this is not ‘every day sadness’

Are their testaments real?

 

Will I ever get out?

And can it get better?

Cause I feel— like I’m lost and forgotten

In this damn well— that goes on forever—and ever

 

I’m told that hope is present— every day

Like a gentle light in a  window —peeking  through

I pray that there is

So I’m not left behind— forever blue
