The Feeling of Blue

There this feeling I can’t seem to shake lately. It comes late at night. In the middle of a bustling crowd. During a day that I’ve been kept busy, and I final get a moment of peace. It drains me. Well it mostly feels like my heart is suddenly empty. There is nothing left inside of it, like there is an indestructible metal box that has been built around my heart to keep it from feeling. I simply call it the feeling of blue. Not the blues, but the feeling of blue. It’s like the sound that is heard when you place your head underwater in a bathtub, or the sound of glass shattering and then the silence that follows. It’s like the feeling of knowing you are growing apart from someone you love, but you can’t change it. It just feels like a desperate plea for love that no one expect me can hear. I hope you no longer feel the feeling of blue.
