Depression

It's been a another day when
It seems like faith eludes me
Dark clouds are back,
And here I am again.
Standing in the
Poaring down rain of my tears, of oh so many years
My bitter reality.
I'm waking,
My bones are breaking,
I feel it weighing down,
Give me my mask,
And I'll be your clown,
A pretty plastic smile
To hide the frown.
It's not that I don't want too,
I feel so dead inside!
I just want to hide!
Can't I just stay inside?

Blood ran in streams,
Crimson flowing from the cross,
I see the man,
Body ridden with scars,
I look at my arms
And see the same carves.
But something is different,
I know that it's true!
He says,"My daughter, I did this for you .
Every cavern,
Dug into my back,
Meant healing for you,
With every whack.
I caught all your tears,
Saving every one my dear.
I know pain. He says,
Blowing away my tears
And the rain.
I'm a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. "
I take His hand,
Shaking like a leaf.
Light floods me where
Darkness once hid,
Completely gone
By what He did.
I found new light and life
In His name, the name of Jesus.
