Unrest of Spirit

With his spirit focused on thoughts of doomsday
Unrest is a constant reminder happiness eludes him
Life’s tapestry seems painted with a brush of grey
It’s hard to feel hope when he feels down and blue

Unrest of spirit comes in waves to be caught early
Look at his life and identify what’s not workin’
Needing to find a support group that's friendly
Focused on true interests and passions deep within

A gentle poem that is filled with brilliant advice; for a support group must be friendly, and passionate, and kind. The people who can chase off doomsday realize that it is difficult to feel hope without a support group- possibly nigh onto impossible.
