this depression is eating
its eating right threw us
melting our flamless passion
by torching all remaining flames
what remains now
just a pillow with marks
a earless listener
and a tearless crier
just tell me youre here
and give me your trust
because youre all that i need
my hunger you do feed
I plead
feel what you feel
if it hurts just,
bleed
Its as easy as 123
we will be free

this is great, the only thing I have to say is, when it comes to depression...is this...it will rob you..it will scare you. it will bring you down to your kness. it will destroy an other wise happy person...It has these effects..I should know..I could write a book on the subject. thats if I had the literary skills which I dont..but what I can do which can be a lot better, is be a lending ear..but never expect me not to hand or dish out my opinion or facts on depression...I have also suffered from this...and I can tell you first hand,,,there is always a light at the end of that rainbow us fellow poets love to write about...and there is help....lots of it.....just ask the right people get the right information..and your life can change..because when we dont feel right then nothing is right....not you..or your children....on and on..........learn to recognize the symptoms how long they last so on and so forth..I think you get the picture, as far as it (depression) and it sucking big time well your right on this...it does.......but does not have to rule.
a little is o.k....but when it interferes with your sleeping your eating...these are signs. we love to blame it on our particular circumstances which of course adds to it. or even may be a huge contributing factor to how we feel...for example..I hate my kids, I love them but I hate them feeling....you will indeed feel awful .
sorry to go on and on..its just that I know your young talented, have beatuiful twins, I am sure,,,,,,,and hate to think of any one..afflicted with depession...its not just being a little down...this is normal...take into affect that our hormones yes those monsters that lurk in us.......a pendulum comes to mind........you keep strong, never be afraid to ask questions or tell someone ever.........keep the faith for everything we go through happens for a reason and a reason for everything good or bad,.. whew.............I can frigin talk.........cant I.? i was looking for a write from you...and i am happy I read this one....Laura......your friend from Cold Ontario Canada.................home of the hey word........and for all the Americans out there, that think we actully have moose everywhere..lol...actually I live with five of them in my house........lol........
