That Blue Fog

..........................

********************

Lying in bed asleep,

And a heavy fog envelops me.

I awaken, blue.

My world is numb yet painful,

And my heart feels spikes of agony,

I lie there, blue.

I gather myself and descend the stairs,

To sit in silence and turmoil.

I sit there, blue.

I wish to cry and release the pain,

But my heart doesn't know how to cry.

I feel crushed down, blue.

I sit, crumpled, unloved, broken,

I have no time, no-one to fix me,

I sigh alone, blue.
