Feeling Blue

By Joshua Tchaou

Weeping, pouting without a reason

Sadness building within

Wanting to kill but it is treason

You then know you are feeling blue

Had a bad day at school

Everywhere you turn there’s trouble

Anyone not knowing is a fool

They should know you feeling blue

Mom’s yelling

Whining all around you

Anger inside swelling

You’ll know your day is blue

No quiet and peace

Only staring at homework for hours

 Headaches that just won’t cease

If you’re feeling blue

Misery all around you

The shouting, the fighting

You sometimes wish this wasn’t true

That you are feeling blue

Then sunshine comes

The world seems to freeze

You can almost hear happiness toll and drum

You smile and start to work

So long to the curse of feeling blue
