January Blues

January Blues

What’s the matter with me today? I’m feeling down in the dumps
I’m ratty, tetchy, out of sorts, the grumpiest of grumps.

I can feel a big, black, brooding cloud looming o’er my head.
I want to have a duvet day and crawl back into bed.

Life’s daily grind has ground me down, I’m having “a bad day”.
I need to know that it’s okay not to feel okay.

I can’t control Mother Nature, the earth, the sky, the sea,
I can’t control other people but what I can control is me.

Life’s roller coaster takes you high, but then it pulls you down.
I need to know I’ll climb again to lift my worried frown.

My friends all say “ Don’t worry” but that’s easier said than done.
I cannot help but worry, yet worries…I have none!

So I really must remember, as I travel my life’s highway,
It’s natural and normal. IT’S OKAY NOT TO FEEL OKAY.
