Life Abundant

This is what I wrote about my depression and the light I am now seeing.

Life Abundant

Tearing, ripping at my heart and mind
But encased in grey, my life is blind
Living a placid, peaceful death
Hiding my emotions to my last breath

Nothing ever changing day to day
Calm outside, but my soul being flayed
Passing through in ignorant bliss
All the while sinking in the abyss

But then the stone begins to crack
All at once it shatters and I can’t go back
Flotsam and jetsam plaguing my life
Shipwrecks of the past filled with strife

Trudging and tumbling in the noxious mire
Lost in the storm, thrown in the fire
Glimmers of hope in an endless nightmare
Leaving the poisonous lies for fresh air

Filled with this weird, crazy thing
Gaining knowledge, what will it bring?
I can sense the change, I feel triumphant
This is how it should be, life, life abundant
