Today’s Poem

 

Today’s Poem is about depression. Depression is something I am all too familiar with. I guess you could call me an expert! I hate it that I have experienced it so much in my life, but that’s just how it has been. I need to remember, as everyone with depression needs to remember, that depression can lift, and we can have better days ahead.

 

When we are feeling really low it can be hard to remember that we will ever feel better again. Just know that if you are experiencing a bout with depression, that you are not alone, and can reach out to me any time. I will be here for you and can pray for you. 

 

Today’s poem is very short, so here we go…

 

Depression

 

The river flowed

Beside me

Yet I could not gaze upon it

 

A bird sang

Above me

Yet I could not appreciate it

 

A child laughed

Next to me

Yet I could not reciprocate

 

These are the outcomes

Depression brings

These are the tragedies

Within the little things

 

A verse that speaks to me when I am feeling depressed is Psalm 34:18– 

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

 

 

Until next time, stay safe, and be blessed!
