Overcoming Depression

My days are long and my nights longer still As I sit here watching this little pill Will it remove the gloom I feel inside Or will it just provide a chance to hide When it wears off, am I back to square one With an even greater gloom to take on I have tried all the normal avenues Yet I still continue feeling the blues What is it that I really need to do To rid this gloom and become myself true Deep inside me, there's a fighting spirit Saying to face this gloom and conquer it Connecting with Nature provides an ease Listening to the sound of a gentle breeze While it's passing through the surrounding trees Serenading them with the rustling leaves I shall draw my strength from the divine source In whose awareness I do not feel lost I know I shall overcome finally And once again my spirit shall be free We all love you, Linda! You Shall Overcome! 12/7/2014
