Depression

I stand at the gates of Hell, holding to a sliver of hope that I may not enter.  I look for You, but I cannot find You. Are You hiding? Why?  I see Your words in black and white and black and white all turns to gray.  What did You say?

Pollution clouds my vision and I cannot see the Son through the haze.  Can I know Your ways? How many days, weeks, months, years, decades will it take to shake this fake and make him real. You got a raw deal. How do You feel?

Hope lives. Love gives.  I will see You tomorrow, but can I borrow, a little joy for the sorrow of today?  What do You say?
A break in the clouds, a voice from the crowds, “I love you!”  From places never guessed, You bring the best, and I’ve no time to be depressed.
