Depressed

Down

Depressed

Down in the dumps

 

Doubtful

Distressed

Throat full of lumps

 

Don’t know what to do

Where to go from here

Down

Depressed

Filled with despair

 

Need a bit of cheering up

Because I’m so weary

Feeling a bit under the weather

It’s all so dreary

 

Down, depressed, distressed, drained

These digging emotions, drive me insane

 

Need some sunshine

To shine through the rain

Need to get away

By boat, plane or train

 

Down, depressed, totally blue

Dangerously doubtful and stressed out too

 

So here’s the thing

I want this poem to have a happy end

So a negative message to you I won’t send

 

What can I say; it’s just a momentary lapse

But for you let me fill in the gaps

 

Things are really never as bad as they seem

Out of the darkness a flicker of light gleam

 

In the dark night, there are the moon, stars, and fireflies

So forget what you’re hearing

The Devil’s lies

 

He is a liar, you know

There is a bright light at the end of this trail

So keep moving forward

You will prevail
