Wait
What you see,
It's the disease.
Killing me slowly,
Draining me quietly.
It's there every hour,
Taking my power.
I wake up, and it's there.
It feels like no one cares.
It disrupts my slumber,
To tear my heart asunder.
There isn't a day that goes by,
Where I don't think about giving up to die.
It's there before I go to sleep,
Crowding out the counting sheep.
There seems to be no escape.
But wait.
What is that I see?
Light spilling in front of me?
It opens up my heart,
Breaks my blindness apart!
I can finally see,
The love meant to be,
The caring hearts around,
My heart leaps abound!
I see now why I have life,
Amidst all my pain and strife,
I'm meant to show love,
Following the One above.
It's so great to be able to open up my heart and share it with all of you.
What do you think about it?
Jarred, I want you to know you're not alone in these feelings of depression. I struggled for a LONG time with it and here and there I still do. I think it's really great you started a blog to get stuff like this off your chest, and anything else you feel like speaking out on! (I read your other posts and they're awesome) :) I recently started one too for similar reasons.

ReplyDeleteIt's not totally set up yet, but that's okay! Also, if you ever need to talk about the depression or anything else I'm always happy to help other people that are going through things that I've been through and can now say I'm successfully on the other side of. It gets better :)
Thanks Kalli!! I will be for sure checking out your blog! :)
