I live my life in a dark room.
No one else is around.
There are no doors to be opened.
No windows to be found.

I run my hand along the padded walls,
looking for some escape.
There is no way out.
Now my life's at stake.

I hear the faceless voices
talking above my head.
I fight to grasp what their saying,
but I can not tell what's said.

I'm losing all perspective.
I've lost all control.
Everything I had,
is everything they stole.

---------------------------------

Don't worry, I'm not crazy!
I wrote this about 8 years ago
when I was going through a deep
depression.

Depression, what a grand thing to climb out of, I'm also glad you pulled out, so many don't.
The padded room, been there done that.
Joel.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

Thanks to you all for reading.  Depression almost got the best of me, but I fought it.  Now I'm a stronger person because of it.  There's always a way out, if you're willing to fight hard enough.  Thanks again!

Kristi~
I think we have all felt this way at some time during our lives, you are not alone. Depression is such a tormenting thing to go through, sounds like you've come through though and thats fantastic.
Great poem
Tracie~


 Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe
