Distant
inches away
burying this head

so close to misery

gaining upon
tired muscles
that ache...
    ...........from all the walking away

open your mouth wider
and swallow some pride
forced spoons of happy medicine

I may smile towards daylights offering
the blue twinges of skies once shared

but

It doesn't mean
I spend less time decoding the fall of black

A little anything
     sometimes shares nothing ....



                .... sometimes.

       Those blue twinges deserve brighter days.

liz u know the happy medicine don't work right?

This was a very interesting read. it's hard being chronically depressed. you make me see it as i didn't even when i was. we really do contemplate darkness alot. u'll get thru it.
