I Can't Get Rid of the Blues

Here is a poem of love and blues for the ladies.

Why do I have the blues?

It’s because I still love Donna

I met her in high school

She was a clever player

I knew she didn’t love me,

But I played along with her games

Although she was using me,

I fell in love with her

Things didn’t go well for me

And I’ve had the blues since then

 

We were teenagers then

Now we’re grownups

I see her around once in a while

She still has a pretty face,

But I won’t try to seduce her

I don’t think it will work

She deceived me once,

And so she may do it again

Thinking about her depresses me

I can’t get rid of the blues
