Dissolution Of Depression.

Dissolution Of Depression.

A Poem by Bonaventure Onuabuchi
"

Dedicated to Okoronkwo Jennifer Chinenyenwa, and Semira Ogweda....; two e-friends who worth more than just friends.

"
Howling blues dawned,
And cast on my head many clouds.
Their bloody hands, fetched me like a kid.
Their piercing sounds, tore me to shreds.
Depression! The odds-on favourite;
Sucked me into pessimism.
My heart; became down and out ;
And no one to take him home.

At the dawn of the night.
When the sun was deeming abandonment.
I deadened the enthusiasm to live.
Before the cordiality feigning moon could deceive.
Slowly and lowly lied I to die.
Counting the second's sounds silently in despair.
Till at dead of night,
When the winter's wind brought the summer's damsels to my thought;
Then arrived roses in my cheeks!

Youre welcome Bonaventure!
Sometimes it is the smallest of things to lift us up. It would be good if all friends remember this.

You hit it out of the park with that opening line Bonaventure and continued with aplomb.
You described the 'black dog' well here and the wistful nature of the comeback from it.

The dedication to your friends is truly admirable. Well done!
