Purple Blues Poem by Charlie F. Kane

Got that feeling again.
Same as it ever was.
Loneliness? Perhaps.
Always the same,
Up-down,
Who gives a damn.
I can’t explain this,
I am just miserable,
Or perhaps just crazy.

I guess I am lonely,
Thinking of being without,
I am just a child inside,
Little boy lost,
Only hope can save me this time,
Though I am running short of it now.

You know it’s not good,
When you keep listening
To Leonard Cohen
And Lennon’s ‘Yer Blues’.
