65th Poem: Dejected

65 11 7
                                    

Sometimes I get

into a mood,

a depressed one in which I tell

no one of my feelings because

they are not fit to know.


I will not tell my father,

because he knows nothing,

nor will I tell my mother,

because it might be about her.


I definitely won't tell my

step, because she doesn't need the knowledge,

but at the same time,

I'm wishing for someone to

pull the weight off of my shoulders,

even if only for a minute or two.


I can talk to my friends on here,

the only ones I'd really tell stuff,

but sometimes,

my sadness is too great,

keeping me from speaking

as I mope around in a dreary state.


It's funny how,

my favorite color is blue

when I usually feel blue

down in the dumps of my mind

the pungent smell stinging my nostrils

from the inside,

shrinking me into my own self,

cowering in a shell that is my body.


Blue.


A color that symbolizes

trust, loyalty, wisdom,

confidence, intelligence, faith,

truth, heaven, peace, order, and strength.


Ha, it's funny right?


I have limited trust,

a hell of a lot of loyalty,

no wisdom, confidence, 

and mild intelligence,

I have faith and try

to tell the truth,

I've always loved peace

and I have tried to get order.


Strength?


Of what kind?


Either my body or

of my mind,

there is no strength.


My body is simply a host

of my tainted soul

waiting to be 

buried in the ground

so my soul can escape,

whisked away by whoever

wants it,

hopefully to a good place.


Depressed thoughts

make their way into my head,

my lips turned down,

my eyes downcast,

my legs moving mechanically,

taking me to my destination.


Many days

I have these thoughts.


 Emotions seep in

my body sulks

and my mind stays stuck,

leaving behind a

dejected little girl.
