Living with Chronic Pain

I'm bluer then blue

This is truer then true

All this sadness

Is total madness

My self esteem

Has gone downstream

 

I can't seem to shake this

And for this I am remiss

Feeling like a failure

In need of a savior

Need to take action

On this lack of motivation

 

I don't know what to do

Feels like the flu

I hate this feeling

It's so damn crippling

Bluer Then Blue

Bluer Then Blue

 

 

 

What do you do

when you're bluer then blue

Have you bitten off more then you can chew

feeling like there's nothing you can do

 

Do you sit there and stew

Unable to decide

just where you reside

setting everything aside

unable to glide

taking nothing in stride

needing it all to subside

 

What to do....

It's all up to you!

you can give up

or strut your stuff.

Go out and play

tomorrow's another day.

Get up off your can

and be your own biggest fan.
