In a while...

Crystal Hope

  • She lost her touch. 
    She lost her smile. 
    She hasn't been herself
    in quite a long while. 

    Every day she'd look,
    but all seemed gone. 
    She lay in bed
    for all was wrong. 

    Her thoughts and actions 
    were not her at all. 
    She'd crumble at every step,
    every mile, every fall. 

    She stayed this way 
    for a couple of years. 
    Waking up to sadness 
    and lying in tears. 

    After all this time
    she wants to change things. 
    Let hope take a hold
    and let happiness sting. 

    She will find her touch. 
    She will smile. 
    She will find herself,
    but this time in a short while.

    I know what depression is all about. Remember, Jesus is always there for you. Also, this was a good write.
    Jesus saves.
    Persistence is key

    Nicely written, Crystal.

    You need to laugh a lot and keep writing. This will enable you to overcome your depression. 🙂

          You'll be OK. You're young. Years from now you'll look back on this time and you may say, "What was I thinking." Your poetry friends on this board will keep you on-course. 🙂
