O Depression

O depression 

In despair ,thou art give me refuge ,
To whom ,the world only rebukes ,
I have race of thoughts ,
Which the atmosphere has bought ,
In insecurity my feelings run,
In consolidation ,emotions shun,
Mind goes Helter skelter, 
In search of peaceful shelter .
Mind gets full of pollution 
Thoughts positive and negative in motion 
Mind sets into traffic rush rush
With body responding to this Hush hush 
Anxiety forcibly pops in 
Depression says,"why did you drop in ?",
Handling all of you drains me 
Sleepless nights in bed frame me 
Restlessness accompanies me in bed 
Weakness in all I have bred 
Unexpectedly hope enters with love 
Depression sighs ,"why thou art enter in this hullabaloo, .
Hope replies,"hey I'll recite a limerick from honolulu 
In this atmosphere of anarchy 
Let me exercise my monarchy 
Thou art will be gifted 
With a morale highly elevated 
Shew away these fiery personalities ,
And thou will achieve all royalties 
Of happiness ,peace and freedom ,
In my holy spirited Kingdom "
