Not feeling so good today
Is there much else to say?
Don't want to push away
Don't want to end it all
But not feeling tall
Not taking any calls
Not feeling so good today
Like my hope went astray
Won't push you away
But not feeling so good
Not like I should

relatable and reassuring, hope you feel better soon
I'm so sorry you're having one of those days. It just sometimes happens. Sending you lots of good vibes, love and hugs Sir Paul. Hope you feel better soon ❤️
Sorry you were feeling that way.., hope you might be feeling a bit better now. Hope will return. I too get so locked into this at times like why can’t my rational brain think my way out ya know. It obviously just takes time and positive distractions etc and/or just rest. You have also been working hard & likely have some mild burnout from your writing challenge that impacts things too. Hang in there Paul! 😊☀️
I feel ya, brother.
Aw, hope you're feeling better, or will be soon. I like this one, though. It's got good sound to it, and I like how specific it is to the emotional state, not too extreme in its "bleh." "Don't want to push away Don't want to end it all But not feeling tall" I know how that feels. Not horrible compared to other states of mind/body, but it still sucks. So I hope it passes. 💗
Bad days are the worst I hope yours goes better.
Oh noooo Bad days fucking suck Tommorrow's just on its way Hope its far less crap
Seems to be something in the air today; I'm there, too. Hopefully it will pass soon, pal.
Praying you feel better soon soon soon...
It's okay To have a bad day We won't go away. Not having a ball, It's ok to fall, We're here for you Paul. The sun hides it's rays On some darker days But reaching out pays. Don't get stuck on should, Just do what feels good.
We all go through such a day. It makes us appreciate a good day more .
Me too! Not sure of why, just low. Hoping you’re yourself soon ❤️
I hope you feel better soon, Paul. It sux to feel bad.
This is a wonderfully honest piece, perfectly expressed, pal. Been there many a times. Sending more waves of joy and peace across the pond! Love your author's note- indeed, tomorrow is another day!
