O Depression

O depression In despair ,thou art give me refuge , To whom ,the world only rebukes , I have race of thoughts , Which the atmosphere has bought , In insecurity my feelings run, In consolidation ,emotions shun, Mind goes Helter skelter, In search of peaceful shelter . Mind gets full of pollution Thoughts positive and negative in motion Mind sets into traffic rush rush With body responding to this Hush hush Anxiety forcibly pops in Depression says,"why did you drop in ?", Handling all of you drains me Sleepless nights in bed frame me Restlessness accompanies me in bed Weakness in all I have bred Unexpectedly hope enters with love Depression sighs ,"why thou art enter in this hullabaloo, . Hope replies,"hey I'll recite a limerick from honolulu In this atmosphere of anarchy Let me exercise my monarchy Thou art will be gifted With a morale highly elevated Shew away these fiery personalities , And thou will achieve all royalties Of happiness ,peace and freedom , In my holy spirited Kingdom "

Such an expressive poem you post as your introductory offering to Soup, Rizwana. Not an easy topic to talk about, but you managed it fluently and with dignity. ~ Regards // paul
