A beautiful poem from a beautiful volunteer, thank you Sue for sharing this with us.
Depression
Big black clouds press down on me
Colour in the world I cannot see
All is grey within my life
Nothing left but sadness and strife
Enthusiasm it has left
Of energy I am bereft
Each long day is a terrible fight
Just to get through from morning to night
Welcome sleep
Now I cannot weep
You will be over far too soon
Once again I must face the gloom
When will this ever end
When will I be on the mend
When will I smile again
When will I escape this pain
Try as I might I find it hard to fight
The way I feel just can’t be right
Somebody please – show me the light
