For so long I've been in a real dark place Hiding away from the things I couldn't face Drowning in sadness,enveloped by gloom Day after day I'd sit alone in my livingroom Curtains stayed shut,mind closed off too Nowhere to be,nothing I needed to do Days and nights merged into one Didn,t know when one ended or when it begun Not that it mattered,I didn't care Wasn't as if I needed to be anywhere People would come,I didn't answer the door Eventually they didn't come anymore Darkness and sadness had engulfed my soul Depression had come and swallowed me whole Being alive had stopped being a pleasure Life was something I now didn't treasure But slowly the dark clouds are shifting The depression and sadness are lifting Each day I feel able to do a little bit more My heads getting clearer,my heart is less sore Things are starting to look a little more bright I'm half way down the tunnel.......and I'm seein
