The Blues


I'm feeling blue,

People avoid me like the flu.

I really wanted to be you,

But you told me to get a clue.

So after that experience I grew.

I'm glad you helped me breakthrough.

Because now I feel brand new

Now I know you're the wrong idol, YAHOO!

<p>Out of curiousity why did you think it was about him? I added this poem for people suffering from depression I never even tagged him in the poem, and the cause didn&#39;t say anything about him being involved?</p>

<p>Actually I wrote this poem years ago, it&#39;s not about Robin William&#39;s at all I don&#39;t know who that is as a matter of fact. But if I offended you in anyway I&#39;m sorry. I wrote this poem for people who look up to someone, but they turn out not to be who they tought they were.&nbsp;</p>
