Living with fear

Swirls of purple mist
Rob the light from life
Anchored to my nightmare
My mind in painful sickness

Covered by dusty fetid veil
Too heavy to lift alone
Dying to die in peace
Unable to draw last breath

Ugly images become bland
Nothing tastes or smells
Indifference numbs the pain
Emptiness sleeps beside me

Eaten up inside my mind
My soul escaped my shell
Depressions wretched grasp
Has stolen me again

You've described so well the feelings that come over one when depression wraps you in its darkness.

I don't know what happened June but the reply at the top of the page is for you, under Cusick. Maggie

maggie, thank you so much. i found it lol. Depression is one of the main reasons i write poetry as it was one of the few ways i found to express the darkness. this is probably the third or fourth poem i have written on this subject and i am sure i will write more.

thank you for taking time to tell me your thoughts on this one and your good wishes.

you have given me a smile .... :0)

hugs june x

aw june, this is indeed a heartbreaker.

and since you have read Maggie's reply, I'm going to feel free to delete that, k?

But just so all is not lost, I copied it for the two of you:

"This is so sad June, if you were near I would give you a big hug. You have written it with such flair I was sorry it was short. Maggie"

There ya go!

With hugs for the two of you too!
