Analysis of Poet's sadness
A poet's sadness drearily bleeding from his pen
flowing
nowhere to go
nothing to do
Abundance of destiny
let it be read
eyes in confusion
misleading conclusions
nowhere to go
nothing to do
his writings leave no color but blue
Let it be said
let it be read
What you thought was later
was all in your head
Let it be read

About this poem
I came across this poem while reading through some of my old writings. If I remember correctly, I was going through some depression and drinking to much at this time.
