I am both happy and depressed I wonder if the middle is compressed I hear a voice out of the past I see my mother for the last I want to be with her at rest I am both happy and depressed I pretend to always have my humor I feel depression and its tumor I touch upon a poetic king I worry just about everything I cry over the matters that I wrest I am both happy and depressed I understand the ups and downs I say there is no middle ground I dream of finding an inner peace I try not dwell of death's release I hope I've not made you more stressed I am both happy and depressed |

I can well relate, take care, challenge well answered. It's in your eyes a fire that's wild and glorious Unhibited, unfinished in everything I do Let the morning rise like our hearts desire" whipping boy |
