Why Be Blue

When I listen to the blues they always make me sad,
by bringing back the memories of the sad times I’ve had.
So why then do I listen? Why do I bring myself down
listening to blues songs like, “The Tears of A Clown”?

By looking back at sad times, I set my soul at ease,
for they give a true perspective of life’s realities.
See, there were many happy times and these are what I choose,
but I know I wouldn’t enjoy them if I never had the blues.
