Depression

Within the darkness comes the light To save you from this dispiriting night But as the light dims you lose your way Knowing the darkness is where you stay Since the selection until the end The darkness within is where you have been From the mazes and canals of your once great mind Comes the fear of being left behind You've seen motivation from family and friends Why doesn't this darkness come to end A blessing to someone who loves me dearly To leave the darkness you must listen clearly
