February 23, 2022 Miracle Man Disheartenment came with opened eyes, for a switch, my inner self now cries. Like most days I’m rapidly depressed, but through all this I still feel blessed. Life has evolved to where it is today, the world is a serpent and I its prey. Intellect tells me it won’t get better, from this mentation I must unfetter. Days no longer are drenched in sun, in my quest for peace I’m finding none. The music of sweetness is no longer heard, the past is gone and future is blurred.

Tom, I know some of these feelings, and I appreciate your honesty and your ability to express them in this way. Your quatrains express how many of us who experience depression (mine is seasonal) feel. The future is promising, I can assure you.

Take heart, old soul, and write through the pain // And joy will soon fall, like soft, gentle rain // The sun will arise on a new day again // And of this dark shadow time, naught will remain
