tuesday blues (2-18-14)

i refuse to become jaded
turn a deep and mysterious shade of green
from the hurt and resentment and discontentment
that springs from within me.

these tuesday blues are getting me down
but i will not kowtow or allow myself to succumb
though numb from trying to pretend it doesn't sting
putting that brave face on again and over again

moments when i stare at the wall with the
fierce hot tears pushing pulsing behind my eyes
the whys bubbling closer to the surface
than i would like to allow them to get

so take a deep breath and give allowance to the blues
pay them their dues. and keep moving.
it's got to be harder to live that jaded shade of green
than to shrug off the bitter and pay the blues their tuesday dues.
