Depression

Depression

So many people deal with depression every day

Emotions that cut deep and won't go away

Colors dance around, but all they see is gray

A deep down dismal feeling that has come to stay

Falling deep into the gray world that you've come to know

Everything seems hopeless, there's nowhere you can go

Alone in a place so dark it makes you cry

Thoughts rolling in, do you really want to die

There are many good things, if you could only see

The beauty of the Universe, in this reality

Nature and its colors, people's laughter too

You can climb out, but it's always up to you

You are not alone, and never have to be

See beyond the darkness, to better company

Reach out to someone, and let them near

Let light into your darkness, release all of the fear

Look for the good in everything you seek

Your world doesn't have to be so bleak

The light of love can be your guide

Let your soul direct you from the inside

Let that smile come, let it fill your soul

So you can feel complete, when you let depression go

There are so many people in this world who have to deal

with depression. Sometimes it is mild enough to treat with

good things such as nature and just doing what makes you

feel good. But others are so deep into it, they need pills

because it helps them more. Whatever it is that helps you,

I wish you the best in feeling better.
