Keeping the dark cloud of depression at bay

The dark cloud of depression is always near
A constant battle that I and many endure each day

Some days are more manageable than others
Fighting an invisible enemy evoking fear

Feelings of guilt darken the cloud
Feeling alone amongst the crowd

Trying to be strong and gain a bright perspective on life

Reflecting only on the positives
As we all know there are many
Life is too short to feel this way

Writing down our thoughts highlights our journey

We have managed to keep the dark cloud at bay
Feeling positive about our life and more than ready to greet a new day

Thank you for reading: The dark cloud of depression

I sincerely hope there is nothing but sunshine in your
day.

Stay well and happy, Stuart
