Whisper To the Wind

Walking through a summer night 
      Swaying back and forth , present street
      A wistful longing crept into my sight .
       
      Shifting my  gaze  upon  the  roads 
      Across the little boys holding the ball ,
      Were the men , weary of their loads 
      The blues are deep before the fall 
      Forever more -   I wander .

       Knocked my feet off the ground 
       Up above the world , a sombre sky
       So vague , I dare not make a sound 
       Incomprehensible to the dear , aye 
       Forever more -.  I endure .

      On the brink of torment ,vanished the pride,
      As my catchment cleared into the sea
      A whisper to the wind , I sighed 
      Embraced with warmth and so was I free
      Forever more -   I strive .
 
      Gusts of wind flurried through the future 
      And so shall it be  --
      In my silence , can you hear?
      In my solitude , I shall bear.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Depression is a difficult thing and your poem is sad and you can feel the angst and loneliness.. I wrote a poem about depression also.. I think it is a misunderstood condition...
