I try my hand at writing poetry when I'm especially depressed. I wrote this poem a few years ago when I was going through a bad spell of depression and sadness. The past few days have been a bit troublesome for me and I thought of this poem again and decided to share it with you.
We share our stories sad and true
sometimes we don't know what to do.
We cry, we moan, we wail and whine
and even lose all track of time.
Our friends stick by us while we heal
they understand our pain is real.
They know we must express that pain
in order to feel whole again.
Depression such a lonely place
where all of us have shown our face.
We hold our heads up as we try
to grab some hope as it goes by.
And if at first we don't succeed
we'll try again and then indeed
we shall get well, we will be glad
we need not be forever sad.
I wish that we could vow tonight
to share our strengths and hold on tight,
to take each other by the hand,
to help each other understand
there's hope for all.
