I wrote this poem a few years ago...  I knew this period would pass... (and it did) but that time I just didn't know how or when...


Without A Single Light


Who turned off the light
When I need it oh so bad
Who installed on me this darkness
That slowly makes me mad

Why do I have to travel
Without a single light
And no one there to help me
To fight this scary fight

How am I suppose to find
My way through all this mess
While this black around me
Lead me in distress

Can anybody tell me
What I have to do
To leave the dark behind me
And find a safe way through...

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Neeraja, I understand just how you feel, sweet friend, before when I was a boy I was depressed all the time and felt it would dwell over my entire life but now I've been proven wrong with you and all my wonderful friends and my Joanna! (kiss on cheek) This is beautiful, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Neeraja, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Beautiful poem Neeraja.
I think many of us have been in those dark places, but somehow, somewhere there's always a light to crawl to.
