Depression

He’s the friend you never want to have
Yet leaches onto you
and never leaves
You try to hide him away
Pushing him deep into your mind
Locking him in a safe
Yet he always finds the key
He’s on the prowl
Making everything become colorless
Whispering things into your ear
“You are worthless”
He chained me to the ground
A way of no escape
Put scales on my eyes
So I could not see the light
Then I met this man
He brought the light back
He banished this maniac
He set me free
My chains our gone
I have found my freedom in his light
I find my comfort under his wings
He’s good to me
He loves me
He says I have a purpose
All these things
All these trials
Where used so I could find him
Seek him
Know him
And through this
I could find out
That he is good

Quietly I sit upon the sails
Quietly I wait for morning bells
Quietly I see what you don't tell

In the morning sun will truly rise
In the light hopes and fears will die
In the wild hear a pleasant cry

Walk until our debts are paid in full
Walk until we turn to lovely fools
Walk until the air is nice and cool

Sit and bask in the chilly breeze
Sit and rest tattered toes and knees
Sit and wait then those worries leave

Remember to do just what you're told
Remember not to follow your own soul
Remember we can easily be sold.

By the night these notions will fall
By the night hear the owl's call
By the night discover what you saw

People think flowers are for the spring
People think wasps only sting
People think it's all about the ring

There's a fire that burns inside of us
There's a love better than any lust
There's a home worthy of your trust
When
        night
              kisses
                      the
                          end
                               of
                                  day,
                      there’s
                          a
                     moment,
            when
       my
cares just…
       fall away,
                     a
                     feeling
                         of
                           gliding,
                                     upon
                              calm
                                    waters of life,
                           when
                    peace
               and
         love,
         overcome my strife….

If I was compelling
I would know.
A counterfeit is spotted
by symbols
that fail to show;
signs of value
either there or not.
My throat is full
my eyes are hot.
If I was compelling
it would be telling.
Some things are just universal. It’s not that hard.

We are told to think outside the box
And yet alienated when we act outside of normalcy.
