It pains my heart when I see you dissappear
into that black world they call depression
No joy, no laugh will lighten up your face
Your mind's occupied with irrational obsession

Powerless caught within that feel of exhaustion
No sleep will ease your soul when you are down
Fatigued you are the moment you're awake
No words from me will help, they only make you frown

I stand aside and see the gap grow wider
each time I try to touch, but I'm your enemy
It pains my heart when I see you dissappear
Because I never know how long away you'll be


Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

Such a difficult place to be, watching someone barely exist.  Hoping the year brightens Titia...

I'm sitting here listener to Rod Stewart

Old stuff - rock

We need life and when it isn't there we need something that says life.

My wife live's with it.

I should be doing different things but I never intended to live in a brain killing place like Cirencester where you come to breed or die.

My wife needed someone quiet in 1970 now like a Western where we took time out against the storm we bedded down and now we are still trying to move on.
