A poem for anyone who suffers from depression of any sort. May the Sun shine in your life, and may the dark chasms of depression hold minimal sway over your life. May happiness be your constant companion.

Grays

and bluer days

Clouds come rushing into my wearied mind

Phased,

cut by the blades

What am I to do when what I’ve lost I seek again to find?

Let the good shine

Let it shine forever on

Let the Wisdom become

May it become mine

Let the weather forever change

And let the Sun’s shine come upon

My skin and then

Let it shine well

Let the blossoming jasmine smell

Where the sadness used to dwell

Let it shine on and when

It grows dark; shine again

For me
