Within myself

Another dawn,another day

And so i cope as best they say

To try and find that zest for life

Now filled with turmoil,confusion,strife

Each day another step i know

Awaiting yet another blow

To set me back two steps behind

For though i see,i feel i'm blind

This darkness that consumes at times

To blanket body,soul and mind

There is a way,there has to be

If not,why struggle desperately

I want to feel the way i was

Not just if,or why because

This is my life,i want it back

To feel a part to interact

Not stood outside and looking in

I want to laugh to smile and grin

To feel that wave of fascination

Or is this down to medication

If its supposed to make well

Why is it that i feel like hell.

You do not cease to make me glad with your fine poems...
It seems that depression is permanent condition not only for me.
