if you measure with a tool or a spoon,
the recipe or what you build may be a boon
of consistency, insistently...a hope
if you measure twice a reward thrice
may appear, increase in joy's result
and fear to disappear... a relief
health and mind will be renewed,
if only for the moment as, the darkness
takes a cloudy hold once more...a measure

Depression can be managed by therapy, medication, tools, art, creativity, music, supportive people, community, a faith, colour, sunshine, outdoors, an amazing physician, balance, a voice, a dog or a cat, an aquarium, a plan, any or all many or few, make your plan plan your life, take charge, and no it won't be easy.
