In a world of uncertainty
I dwell in a house of sorrow
Inner demons once silenced
Their voices return to haunt me
Cutting into my very soul
Sitting on a thrown of doubt
Unsure of what to do
My heart and mind unclear
Torn by the unknown
Frozen solid with fear
Depression's icy touch
Chilling me to the bone
What must be done to rid me
of this horrid beast of burden
I sit and ponder silently
As my demons casting dark words,
sorrowful thoughts into my mind
I pray for the answers to come soon
So my eyes may return to clarity
To see the world once again
In the light I've always wished to see

Fear destroys the mind, depression destroys the soul... only love and compassion may save you from death.

You have done a great job of writing of the paralysis of depression.  I would hope that anyone being held back with this would get help to cope in order to move forward and see some light at the end of the tunnel of despair. Extremely well done.
