Depression


Every day
is gray
dreary and filled with gloom
leaving me
with suicide dreams
of doom

Inside of my soul
there’s nothing left
so nothing is right
I’m left standing in the middle
of a damning fight

In whispers
it’s called depression
but to me it’s a concession
that I’ll never be
allowed to see
what it means
to be free

I live by a pill
that makes me feel
I’m on an even keel
yet still
darkness is revealed
each day
I’ll never be healed
so what’s the point
of the pill?
Oh, yeah
it allows me to feel
many of life’s thrills
though I’m just waiting
till
this ends

Surreal darkness
let it feel
and not conceal
what your heart deals
is totally real

The pill
this candy you eat
its purpose not beat
like a mind neat
it shall not retreat

Welcome to my world ohwell

Now, add a little cancer, an unknown parasite (they still deny Agent Orange after 40 years) that enjoys feasting on your insides, government Drs who say you're still "medium mobility", so until they find an answer to the unknown factor..... won't "classify" me......denied for benefits.....AGAIN....

Pharma makes BIG money pushing pills. There are more deaths each year (just in the US alone) from pharma drugs than illegal drugs cause the world over. Teenage suicide, birth defects, psychotic episodes of violence, and on and on.

The pharma lobbyists will continue to pay/support our "leaders" to keep it that way, rather than invest in fixing the problems that aflict our nation causing them.

Join hands my friend with the many millions of us in the same boat and let's vote the corruption from our country!

I know . . . when I wrote this it wasn't my intentions to be sad. I wanted to reflect the reality that some people feel. I don't suffer from depression but I do know people who do.

It is a terribly sad thing and a damning way of life to live but what is even sadder is the fact that many people are able to change the nature of the depression through lifestyle changes. I did it and now that little pill that had control is left forgotten at the bottom of some drawer.

Nice write migdrinker
