Despair

Im drowning in my own remourse
my life changed it went completely off course
shattered dreams of empty times
its dragging me so far down I feel blind.

The sun has gone
my light is grey
im just hoping my sun will return
and lighten these tormenting days.

Im normally strong and brave
I gave, I gave, I gave
my light is shade
im not strong and brave
my light is gone
someone please rescue me
and rebuild my soul strong and brave.

We have all felt this way at sometimes or other in our lives. You have expressed the topic very well. There is a higher power that can strengthen you in these times. Keep writing. Sara

the course may be long, and it may hurt, but you will come thru because you are much stronger than you think....how i know?... you can voice your feelings and you can ask for support. janetta.

Inside you will find your rescue. Get the book Broken Open by Elizabeth Lesser.

Good to meet you you, Gareth. I wish I could rescue you, but the Buddha says not to take on another's karma. Friend, I have enough of my own to account for. Keep writing. You may just rescue yourself. Love, daver
