Image for the poem blue is a woman named sadness

blue is a woman named sadness

 
sadness is a color
sometimes neon blue
it's your pain strobe lighted
so sharp you double over  
there's no ignoring it
 
or flat like melancholy
it just sits with you like an old friend
quietly coming and going
pain without tears
yes she is a proper lady
 
then there is deep blue  
where you cannot shake her
cos she has set up house with you for a lifetime
 
sigh sadness is a woman
who won't stop nagging you
she won't be forgotten
crying at your heart's door  
to be your one and only

icy blue are your feelings frozen over
where pain turns to anger
and you find the strength to fight it
 
in the end, you'll pay the devil to be rid of her
but when your emotions have all gone
you'll go insane missing her
