Depression

Came into this world innocent as I look
Cried and pee I had my first taste.
Corrupted by this evil world
Into a beast I became; my heart was hidden in an iron cage
Waiting to strike my house maid.
Sorrow and pity I had for no one; as I took my final stand.

Then came a creature dress in white, holding a book with a holy cross on it
Learning and listening as I had my first experience
Not knowing what this new experience would be.
Deeper and deeper I got involve before realizing the changes made,
singing and praises is all I do
And whenever I’m down and feeling depress, I read the book of Job to make my day..

It is good you have an uplifting way to fight your depression. And I must admit that the book of Job is a very good one for that purpose.
