[hometext] =>
[bodytext] => Depression is a vicious, voracious animal It will consume you, body and soul It will pounce, cut off all avenues Leaving few options open to you This beast has tracked me side to side Left me stranded on islands so wide Everywhere black skies, huge crashing waves Brought me to the edge of my own grave Countless attacks on my heart and mind Leaving me confused, dazed, hard to find I've wandered its jungle, alone, scared That world can never be shared I've beaten the beast on several occasions Rested on the shore, stars in my vision Felt the sun's warmth, love's glow on my skin Knowing then what it felt to really win Another sneak attack, from the back I would run and run, hide from its track Sometimes it would drag me down to its den In the dark, no hope, no family, no friend I'd reach out, talk until blue in the face Usually ended up feeling like a nutcase Doctors giving me pills, one after another All that did was tear my body asunder Could be the answer to this sad, wrenching pain Is not in the pills, talk, beach or rain I need to look inside, deep into my soul I will tame the beast, gain back my control I will defeat this depression, beast or not Will not back down until this battle is fought I will win, no doubt victory will be mine I will live, love, enjoy my right to the sunshine [comments] => 2 [counter] => 121 [topic] => 61 [informant] => dvtpdw [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
