My Poetry - Nothing Polite in Politics

Cold in my bones but it's warm outside
Political climate keeps me crucified
Hatred permeates to the most high
The end is oh so very nigh

At least that's what I tell myself when the going gets tough
But truth be told, truth is a clusterfuck
So many sides thinking they know best
While the rest of the country is just a mess

There is no more right or wrong
The only "truth" is opinion
When the President himself is morally bankrupt
How's a country supposed to trust?

Our best interests are not at heart
They tell us to go and vote, and do our part
Between two people who are as bad as they come
The lesser of two evils; either way evil has won

A country in chaos, a country in need
Warnings from the past we did not heed
The definition of insanity has been explained
Einstein warned us, but history has been preordained

My Song - Blue Is My Only Hue

(Verse 1)
Did you know that you were going to die
And didn't want to tell me?
Deep down I guess I always knew
But I just didn't want to see 

Our deal was that you were
Supposed to live until you were ninety
Because I don't know how to be
Without you with me

You were the strongest person
I ever knew
I guess I'm not quite as
Strong as you
Because there are days I feel 
Like I can't go on
Days I feel like the devil's won

(Chorus)
My heart is like an open wound
And I don't know how to fix it
I beg God just for one more chance
To talk to you
When the tears fall down
And I feel like giving up
I try to think of the good times, but
Blue, blue is my only hue

Because I miss you 
(I miss you x2)

(Verse 2)
When the doctor said you wouldn't
Make it through the night
The bottom dropped out
From underneath me
But you showed them, when
A few hours later you woke up
And then we got another week
Until you would be set free

The days since you have passed
Are filled with tragic loneliness
Sometimes I forget how to breathe
In the morning when the memories come
And I just don't want to go on
I just wonder if you're there listening to me

(Chorus)
My heart is like an open wound
And I don't know how to fix it
I beg God just for one more chance
To talk to you
When the tears fall down
And I feel like giving up
I try to think of the good times, but
Blue, blue is my only hue

Because I miss you 
(I miss you x2)

I try to think of the good times, but
Blue, blue is my only hue
Because I miss you 
(I miss you x2)

Blue is my only hue
Because I miss you 
(I miss you)

MEANING:
This is a song I wrote.  It's not a happy song.  It's just about being in the moment of dealing with the loss.  It's how I feel every day.  I got inspiration from listening to Ben Rector this morning.
