Depression hits

Depression hits in many different ways
Some struggle to get up most days
Happy people see the sun, feel it's rays
Look at us and think it's just a phase
I know for me, I feel stuck in a maze
A crazy train, drugged up haze
From my dark tunnell, I can see a light
It lures me closer to the end of my fight
My heart skips a beat at the beautiful sight
I am blessed and protected now
Knowing this is getting me through somehow
The strength I feel is actually Real
It grows inside, returning how I really feel
Minutes to hours, day by day
Depression may never fully go away
I will fight to keep it at bay
Many signs pop in to say
The Universe is within Me as is the suns rays
