Light through Darkness

by Chelsea - Gemini

Down the landslide down a hill
Watching life go by through a stained window sill...
Glaring at happiness and praising the sorrow
Thinking the best of yesterday and worst of tomorrow..
Cutting healed writes and bandaging old wounds
Death-like by sun, and lively by moons...
Letting in darkness and blocking the light
Shattering hopes of everything being allright...

Sleeping restlessly and having a calignostic dream
I now realize, things are better than they seem...

Angering others and frightening my soul
Courageous of the future gluing shattered hopes whole...
Slowly and faintly I see the light...
I gently smile, for I know now, everything will be allright

Reason for writing:

    This poem was written because I had to write it....to express what I felt.  Lately, I've been suffering a case of depression, and no one could understand me.  I'd tell few people my problems, excluding my parents.  I even thought of suicide.  I was honestly, out of control.  My parents' couldn't understand my sudden rages and anger...none of my friends...no one.  I wrote this poem, so hopefully, someone no matter who or why or when, can understand me...and help me understand myself, too...
