if thoughts could come true
bring me closer to you
if even for just one day
or a moment of sight
a smile of delight
would mean more
than words could say

each day presses more
each breath locks the door
to a future in lack, of control
if thoughts could come true
with a look into blue
all the ache
would become my console.

"Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."

I know what you mean! Often written this way myself........But as John Lee Hooker put it....."The blues is a healer"  That's another reason for writing them.
You're on a bluesy writing roll today....I enjoyed this!

Ironically, even those thoughts that do come true have a way of stirring up the "blues" too! Nicely done GF!

Blues are good for the soul, my friend...I believe that.  They add credence to all else, as long as one doesn't dwell too long in their abode.
