Depression sucked the poetry from me
I'm doing better, but still
My brain is a fog most of the time
Still struggling up that hill
It's a chore to live sometimes
But I don't want to die
Have a lot of life to live
Sometimes I'm not sure why
Pristine snow and a darkened sky
Are my friends, don't you know?
I wonder the fun I'll have
When spring and summer show
What I'd give for a sunbeam
Just one, just for a moment
It gets dark so early
It's my daily torment

Thank you Andy! Always appreciated!
Yes, as Gold says! 🙂
Thanks Orchi! Appreciated!
Yes, as days physically get lighter, so it may be for you in person. Seasons can affect moods. There is 'This too will pass', said by a wise one. But not entirely to wish away everything 'nasty' or 'bad'.
I won't sing - it'll only make ya feel worse! Note to self: nothing new there then Orchi. lol.
Depression sucks .. period .. but this my friend is quite possibly one of your finest .. and so, if I read you clearly, the beast has done us all a favour .. x
Why, thank you dear Neville! A most welcome review on a gloomy day...x
Such a perfect metaphor, having lived in the ice and cold I can feel it. I guess that is why I moved to warmer weather. I love the sun.
Me too but I don't like tornadoes or hurricanes! I can relate though. Thanks for your kind review!
