My Thoughts


The day is sunny and
All should be well with me
Great Job, New Car, and
Many bills to pay

Yet, forever I am plagued
By this cloud of ever present
Depression cloaking me like
A villain waiting to attack.

The air is brisk and feels
Good to my skin as I warm
My face in the glowing sun
Yet, I always feel lonely

I wonder often if I can
Ever break free from the
Invisible bonds of the dark
Mood that grips me

Yes, I want happiness
And Joy to be with me
Yes, I want to laugh aloud
Still happiness eludes me.

Be thankful I am told
For all that I have
I am very much so
However, dark clouds linger




Nothing hurts more than sitting next to the one you love - knowing it will never be.

I really liked this.  I believe that many live in lake effect clouds...where we can't seem to tolerate a good strong rain in order for the low condensation to dissipate.
Once it really poured, I found the sun!  I really liked this!

I enjoy those moody invigorating storm clouds that make you KNOW you are alive. LOL

Goes with the territory

I talked tonight about how I changed when I became professional for open to everyone to anybody then considering me a fool if I tried to be open.

They wanted to be told and trying to involve them meant to them I couldn't manage.

Not that they didn't care and expected an excuse and money for being there.

Welcome to the life of Taylor where the tickbook and clock matter more than ambition and achieving.

Clokes can be taken off when clouds recede. The sun will shine soon, I know it.

Nice write. Nice expression of feelings.
