Image result for pictures of an older woman lost in depression

when dreams die, death isn't far then hope leaves floating in a jar search drawers cluttered closets too neither are found dreams scattered to the winds but hope remained someday, someday, in the future was the constant refrain health gone lost by the way arthritis impedes talents waylaid days there are hopes that health will come then a sadness engulfs like a drum somewhere enthusiasm disappeared did someone else pick it up or is it like the dust off tires by the roadside has depression now settled in

Sigh, I've been through this perpetual state of extremely bad health, depression and many other things. I can relate with these words to the core.. Especially, how you've said about dreams & hopes fading away. There's a saying that a person can survive few days without food and water and some moments without oxygen, but without hope, it only takes a millisecond to pull their souls out.. I'm sending you so much love, light & healing vibes, dear Sara, you're a beautiful soul!!

hi Sara, stand by their side and hold God's banner with them, pray with all your might so that your prayers are heard, so sad when youth dies, but hope is still there. God Bless. My prayers are with you. hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

When dreams die, we still have time to dream again my friend.. health is always a worry, but you know I know so many healthy people who died young.. I felt the angst in your words..

SO, it is sad when a person dies too young when they haven't been able to accomplish what God had for them to do. Thanks for the nice visit. Sara K

Sad but true. Dreams fade with age-- with all the ill effects aging brings. Potent write, Sara.

I can relate to this. B12 vitamins can work miracles. as for this piece it speaks in a poetic way. In the art we see that we are not alone.

TS, I put a dropper full of B12 under my tongue occasionally, but if I use it every day I will start to gain weight which is a negative in my situation. LOL..I am already about 40 lbs. to heavy. Thanks for the kind review of my work. Sara K
