Depression is Real and Painful

Zenovia B.
Do you have those days when the world gets overbearing?
It feels like everything is closing in, and no one seems to be caring.

Every problem that you might have seems to be maginified.
You cannot seem to think it out nor can it be simplified.

That is when your bed becomes your best friend.
The comfort you find within your sheets your energy stays within.

No one seems to understand this hopeless feeling is real.
The world would be a better place if this space you did not feel.

"Snap out if," people to you reply, "tomorrow will be a better day."
Don't they realize if you could, you would not want to feel this way?

YOU are not alone; I know what you are going through.
Hopeless, loneliness, guilt and sorrow are feelings I have experienced too.

Try prayer, writing, talking to someone, medication if you must.
The True God is always with you, with words that you can trust.
