Depression Poem
Rothya James
For so long now
I’ve nourished a thought
too distraught
to relay
or betray
with myself
what ought not be
so revealing
and if that thought
remains dominant
I’ll be despondent
in the moods of my nature
the nomenclature of things
are so redundant
just a bushel of laughs
passel of tears
a tisk
task
batch of fears
some miles of glory
and a string of years

It take daring to love, Audacity when it's lost Fighting injustice makes you justified, ignoring injustice makes you unjust Men make circle in life and women are at the center To love someone is to surrender yourself and in so doing completes you The beauty of youth is foolishness the beauty of age is reflectiveness the beauty of life is both Women want to be adored men wish to be honored Big ideas can make you heroic small ideas can make you frivolous no ideas can make you invisible Don't fear life, embrace it, shape it and you can form a h eaven A perfect day is rare, and imperfect day strives for perfection Knowing yourself and you can withstand any tragedy, not knowing yourself creates tragedy By Rothya James
