I am so blue

I am so blue

A Poem by Pax

I am so blue,

Yet I have no clue.

Oh' why I’ve lost you?

 

Perhaps the reason was you or me

Or we’re just not meant to be.

 

Times spent raised big question “?”

Expectations bring too many unexpected intentions.

 

I’ve lost something I cared for

Now I lay on the ground, a sleeping contour

Not minding the dirtiness of the dirt & hard rocks

   penetrating my skin as if it’s a comfortable bed flocks.

 

The pillow case of pretention is keeping me at bay

   grounded as if I am okay.

Yet I know deep inside, knew how I missed you,

   making my life a bluish hue.

Pax.. I felt a deeper significance was underlying beneath your words and expression of blues so, i went and googled the meaning of the color blue and here is what I found.. I don't think it is coincidence that on Christmas Eve you deeply saw blue and esp. After your last poem.

it said :
"Blue is the coolest color - the color of the sky, ocean, sleep, twilight. The ancient Egyptians used lapis lazuli to represent heaven. Blue symbolizes the Virgin Mary. A pure blue is the color of inspiration, sincerity and spirituality. Blue is often the chosen color by conservative people. Blue is the calming color. That makes it a wonderful color to use in the home, especially for babies. Blue is so soothing that is a good choice for pajamas. Dark blue is the color of truth and moderation. A blue iris means your friendship is very important to me. Wednesday's color is blue. Blue gemstones to wear to feel calm are blue sapphire and blue topaz. Lapis lazuli and azurite are said to heighten psychic power.

Blue Energy

Blue gives a feeling of distance. Artists use it to to show perspective. This is a good way to understand the energy of the color blue - it allows us to look beyond and increase our perspective outward. It contains a cool vibration that is helpful to communication.

The vibration if blue can be used to open energy flow where it is blocked. Using blue to relax will encourage feelings of communication and peace."

I believe that we each tune into thoughts and realities of our own paths and understanding. It may not be reality for some as is with others. But it seems your blue and Christmas have a connection that you are tuned with at this moment. Neat....

Looove this very much. It's hurtful when someone you love is maybe never to return. Those lonely days and nights hoping the soon will and still sometimes. Recollect in the mind of the love once shared.

Thank you, kyle, glad you liked it...
Your picture relates so well with your poem, it really adds to the piece. The very beginning made me smile. I find it all well written as I think it captured the emotions well. The rhymes worked well together and I think added something to the piece. Not bad kid.

thank you again, Ten, I so appreciate your kindness... :)
A simple poem about missing someone coupled with the occasional line of complexity, especially near the ending of the piece. I generally like the neutral stance of your perspective, you aren't quite in tune with your character, but rather narrating the emotions as if it were a book . . . That, I feel, makes the poetic strength of the blues even stronger: as in, they might've disoriented you, hence the neutrality . . . Well done.

Missing one that you love can really put a damper on life. It hovers like a gray cloud, raining down on your soul, until everything around you seems a hapless shade of blue. I love the photograph chosen to go with this piece, particularly poignant as it makes me think of all the soldiers away from their loved ones. I'm sure they often find themselves thinking and feeling the same.

Well done.

Blue seems to be the color of the season...losing someone without reason or justification just adds to that hue. Bittersweet Pax, you raise many questions we all do when faced with this rejection, I can relate. Nicely pen'd my friend.
