06/24 Living With Depression

(Read More...)

Nothing will be like it used to

Like a traveler seeking the main highway,
In the depths of his mind, memories swirl and sway,
But unsure of when the path will come into view,
A person yearning to return to the life he once knew.

He longs for the familiar sights and sounds,
The comfort of routines and familiar grounds,
Yet the road ahead is shrouded in mist,
And the way back seems so far, so missed.

He dreams of the day he'll find his way back,
To the life he cherished, on the right track,
But for now, he wanders in uncertainty's haze,
Trusting that his journey will lead to brighter days.
