Depression
A hole with no bottom,
Black as a void.
All alone with no light
And all your hopes destroyed.
A compressing warp of reality
That robs you of life.
It leaves your heart broken
As if you've been gutted with a knife.
All you want to do is give in
To leave the fight for another.
It takes all your strength to make a stand
Yet you continue to be smothered.
For now I've gotten away from its hold
But it's easy to fall back under the spell.
I pray for those who still have to fight,
But at least I have crawled my way out of hell.
The Dragon
Memories rolled through her mind
Like pebbles in a stream.
Over a thousand years of sleep
With all the most wonderful dreams.
She was meant for solitude
And looked through dragon eyes
Down at them from a great height,
Hoping that one day they would be wise.
But they shrank back afraid
And grabbed the hilt of their swords,
Frozen like standing stones
While she quested towards.
They were overwhelmed
By the Lady's will,
And they raised their hands
Hoping they wouldn't get grilled.
Finding Faith
I saw God
In a world filled with color and light.
I saw God
In my parent's proud smile.
I saw God
When life was as easy to sail as toy boat in a bathtub.
I lost God
When my great grandma died.
I lost God
When the world was reduced to black and white.
I lost God
When I learned not to trust.
I found God,
A light of hope shining in the blackness.
I found God,
When I jumped and someone caught me.
I found God,
When someone actually belived in me.
I see God.
