    Just thought I'd share a poem I wrote earlier today about my most recent bout of depression, it's called four long months

    Four long months

    It's bright outside but in my head the darkness overpowers
    I wait in hope for light to come as minutes turn to hours
    The hours turn to weeks and still I feel the force of gloom
    I'm getting sick of always hibernating in my room
    The doctors try to reassure, try this, try that and wait
    But I can't shake the feeling that it might just be too late
    Four agonising months have passed and still no sign of light
    I've used up all the strength I have I think I've lost the fight

    But then one day I see a glimmer starting to emerge
    I suddenly feel more at ease and think I might be cured
    It's been a giant battle but I finally have won
    The darkness has just disappeared now I can see the sun
    So please remember if you feel this bad you can pull through
    It took 4 months for me and now I'm feeling so brand new
    I've learned a lot about myself but one thing is for sure
    There is a light inside our soul that will always pull you through
