Silence flows through midnight
Locking in the reality of yesterday
Shades of darkness at twilight
Hiding pools of decay
Nothingness in shades of grey
Pursuing the darkness of the day
Innocence is not portrayed
As we wonder who to betray
Hiding now in darkened madness
Finding blackened pain
Wondering what does possess
Nothing given will abstain
Shades of midnight darkened
Filtering through dark light
Filling each heart with dread
At the summoned blight

this is a very good write, depression must be such a terrible thing to have to go through, i have seen it take control not just of the sufferers life but of the whole family for i have a friend who suffers from schizophrenia his poor wife sunk into deep depression believing that she was *losing* her husband. although his illness is now drug controled , she has no control of the depression which still can and does attack at diferent periods in her life,a terible thing for all involved.
we often do not realise how blessed we are
