depression branching...

I've come to a realization to-day, 
Life comes at you with no notice at all. 
One day it's perfect, the next it's away, 
Sadness you can temporarily stall... 
Depression quickly growing like a tree... 
Going to school with a mask on my face, 
Disappointing how few people can see... 
Amazed by the dancers who have such grace. 
Extremely confused by a silly crush, 
Second place is worse than being dead last 
Trying to control tears ready to rush 
Asking that question was stupid but past 
I suppose I really ought to just shush 
I've not been this sad in almost a year 
There is no escape from depression near...♥

I know about depression - after Hurricane Katrina it took hold of me and has not let go yet - it was my inspriation and fuel to write - maybe it can be yours too

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
