Life for me has become confusing Things are moving way too fast I feel I'm caught up in a whirlwind And I'm not sure how long I'll last The pressures I feel are great Weighing like a ball and chain Please let me off this roundabout Before I go completely insane I live inside a hole There is no color in my life Please don't leave that near me That very sharp kitchen knife My mind is not my own It has deserted me this day The sun it may be shining 'tho I don't see a single ray My life is covered in darkness And I can't seem to get a grip Every time I try to leave this hole All I seem to do is slip Please help me find the sun And promise me you'll stay I really need your help right now Someone to guide me the right way * * * * This is dedicated to all those who struggle in our society and often feel on the outer.So many times their cries for help go unheard with some resorting to suicide.

Sue: You have presented well, what it must be like to be in such a depression that you think about taking your life. For so many of these people, there doesn't seem to be an answer. Sad topic, but you;ve captured the atmosphere of it. Betty Lou Hebert |

Sue, so true in these situations and you have done a great job of telling the sad tale. The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. |

Well written. I wish I could say I was a stranger to those feelings, but I don't like to lie. You've captured the essence of depression and hoplessness very well. congrats! Due to circumstances beyond your control, you are master of your fate and captain of your soul. |

Thank you for you comments and part of what I wrote was from first hand experience. I have suffered depression in the past and know what a terrible disease it really is. Fortunately for me I was able to get help before I spiralled further but there are those who are never heard and battle on their own. Society needs to be more understanding of depression and youth suicide as it is now such a big part of every day life. Take care......Sue Suetang |
