Words Are Consolation

Knowing the dark tunnel
The one marked despair
Quite often will grab me
Then it grips me in there

The dragging and pulling
Taking a firm hold of me
In my tunnel of darkness
Depression failed to see

Its laughs and torments
Scorning  and sneering
Lonliness seeking exits  
With no light appearing

Leaning on my elbows
With head in my hands
Desolation in darkness
Sadly one understands

Can shadows of doubt
Emerge from isolation
In reaching for my pen
Words are consolation

Hope, writing is a really good way to deal with so many of the emotions that we as humans experience.

Life can be so difficult, but know there are lots of friends here for all of us.

Thank you for sharing this.

Hugs, Marti

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
