A Challenging Flight

My demons I fight, For my Lord, every day They sit in waiting In the dark places for me. My plight shall I ride, For my Lord, in every way These demons bring up thoughts But my strengths in my Lord sway That is where I won my fall. The depressions: Come at me in madness Along with it Is it evil, for sure? Not sure I can Take much more At times it makes me Want to puke When I can't find a door. A door out of this place, Of depressing, crushing Feelings it leaves. Sure is a bunch of sadness I'm not willing to relive it. I need to get out, But it seems It's my life Even though I to encase And see this with doubt.

Depression is evil and a result of The Fall. Persevere, Mr. Darnell. Evocative piece. :o)

There is only one other person with your name I have ever encountered. The other one is Arlo Guthrie. Have you ever heard of him before? Folk singer. It isn't a common name, that's for sure. Best of Wishes, William
