Blessing - ON WRITING AND RUNNING

I dislike depression
Partially because I don't know what causes it
Nor do I know why I get it I just know it makes an appearance
From time to time
It always has
And it probably always will
The thing that I'm just now realizing
Is that depression
Muddles and befuddles my brain
To the point where I miss out
On the simple pleasures of life
Love and friendship
Smiles and laughter
Hugs and sympathy
I apologize
For not truly appreciating
How much better my world is
By who I know
Rather than what I am
