Leave the Door Open

(A poem inspired by Bruno Mars song titles)

I wake up with The Lazy Song,
A feeling that something is wrong.
Talking to the Moon all night long,
Hoping I can still stay strong.

Count on Me, you say so clear,
But I can’t even face the mirror.
Just the Way You Are, you cheer,
But inside, I feel the fear.

Locked Out of Heaven in my mind,
Searching for peace I cannot find.
When I Was Your Man, I was kind,
Now I feel I’m left behind.

But through the storm, I rise once more,
With 24K Magic in my core.
This is My Treasure, my heart’s roar,
I’ll keep fighting, that’s for sure.

For every man who hides his pain,
In Uptown Funk, we break the chain.
Leave the Door Open to remain,
Together, we will heal again.
