Another Revolution

another revolution

so here you are again
my ugly friend depression
honest no doubt but mocking me
teasing lurking admonishing me

you enfold me whole heartedly
pull all the punches
give darkness
administer loneliness despair gloom
confusion which are so wholesome
they make me believe they are all there is

they say that past performance
is not always a prediction for the future
that the past is gone and cannot be counted upon

it does not really feel like it
but I can do this again

there is love out there
kindness and compassion
very close to my heart
sitting just across from me at the table
and she my lover and soulmate
is just as depressed as I am
a web of entanglement no doubt
but also the reason 
for strength and resolve

if I was not an atheist 
I would find solace in faith
but I hope that spiritual power
will find me again until
life becomes more bearable once more
and the dimmer of my soul
opens up again towards the light
