Do you suffer from depression? Here is a poem I wrote during a time of depression and with Robin Williams recent passing because of his own depression I'd like to share it.
Hope you enjoy.
Kite Flying
"How do you fly a kite with a heavy heart?
Out from darkness can you find art?
Who knew melancholy could feel so heavy?
I'm finding myself green with envy.
I watch the others fly their kites, all those colours fly so high in the sky.
My kite does not take flight, I feel contrite!
How do they all fly so high?
My kite has no interest in dancing in the sky.
Why am I not as good as them?
How I long to also be a gem.
