In the quiet and stillness
The subtle solitude
When everyone is there
And looking right on through
The sorrow prisms life
Like drops of morning dew
It shades the lens of life
An ever-present hue
Wear it like a coat
Walk in it like a shoe
It follows a block behind
Or stands with me in the queue
Fight it like an enemy
Or love it like my boo
It’s pain in skin forever
Like an always new tattoo
Always in the back of mind
Where the strong facades unscrew
I’m just good at being sad
Living in the blue
