Dear Melancholy

Dear Melancholy

A Poem by The Jay

I gave up my soul,
For pieces of silver and gold,

I gave up my skin,
To feed my kin,

I gave up my life,
For a beautiful wife,

I gave up my body,
To buy my son an Audi,

I gave up my rum,
To work in a s**t firm,

I gave up my passion,
So that my daughter can stay in touch with the latest fashion,

I gave up my mother,
For a motherfucking computer.
