DAY 19 ~Purple Blues

I got the blues so bad.

Had the worst dreams I ever had

I was hanging out with the dead.

Those old ghosts controlling my head

Making me deep midnight blue

‘Cause I can’t get back to you no matter what I do.

I’m stuck on you like glue.

Baby, I’m so purple, battered and bruised.

Bank Holiday Blues

Bank Holiday gloom seeps into the room
from a flat sky, full of grey light,
pressed to the glass of the window
three days of no brightness
changes the view
this hollow whiteness
deadens the day
the sounds become softer
the memories harder
of all that is vanished away
