David William Breidenthal Poet Free verse

Distressed Like the Weather

Dark, departing clouds waved their last goodbye
My smile transcends and then…descends
Brought down by unexpected departure

This weather stays with me for a while
But, with my trustworthy friends by my side, 
They’ll encourage me to move on—even if I’m sunk deep with regret 
At least I have some numbers to dial!

Anguish once again reigns upon my mind
With God always by my side, 
He’ll clear my pathway and renew my frame of mind

I could pray for a bright future to rely on…
While I wait till the weather’s completely gone

Jslambert Mister Roboto November 10, 2011 at 1:27 AM By the way...sorry if I sound all amped up or preachy! I TOTALLY am not like that. I just know what I went though with this depression garbage! NO one told me the stuff I am telling you, which MAY have saved a few yrs of misery....Who knows, who cares now. Synchronicity! Keep your head up. I love all my brothers and sisters EVEN ones, Especially I should say, the ones who may hate me! I come in PeAce Bro! Hope this helped! David William Breidenthal November 10, 2011 at 10:44 PM haha it's fine! Yah, that garbage depression keeps getting thrown at me a lot of times, but what makes me one of the happiest people on earth: write poems!!! :) Thanks so much for considerate comments.
