What mountain is higher than loneliness
And what valley is lower than despair
For my heart is torn in the wake of apathy
And I long for a life to share
The light stays dim behind my shades
And all the shadows glow
My voice echoes off the wall
With words that I don’t know
An orange beam filters in
Unwelcome guest in my room
What right the sun to be so bright
When I am filled with deadly gloom
My heart beats irregular
And my thoughts have no pattern
And I hear the wicked laughter
Because the ravens are a-gathering
My soul is on the wire
This might be the end
All the darkness, all the pain
Just cause I have no friend
So if you see me on the outside
Just smile and nod your head
And know that I’m still living
And not yet the living dead

I welcome you to share in my regression. It is the progression of my depression. I don't mean to make a bad impression, this is more like a sad confession.

COME OUT OF IT !!!! Don't sink any deeper into depression. Start writing things that will uplift you. Been there too:!
Rose Coloured Glasses
Rose coloured glasses on my eyes
Diamonds on my ears
I'm makin' sure I'm all decked out
So no one sees my tears.
Baubles, bangles 'round my wrist
Bluebells on my toes...
A costume sure to guarantee
My troubles no one knows!
If it should rain when I go out
I'll strike a perky pose
And as my tears turn into rain
I'll be smellin' like a rose !
So if you see me out today
Don't look into my eyes
I'm tryin' hard to fool the world
And I'm aimin' for First Prize
(wrote that in 1981 and I SURVIVED IT !!!)
