Unfair

Sometimes in my sorrow; I get lost without a tomorrow I let my mind sit and dwell In this place; that's deeper than The deepest well. I find no peace or comfort there; Sometimes this life; seems unfair I need a rope to get me out Tangled in life's deep, deep doubts. I always seem to travel there; I get lost in my despair It's like the walls are closing in on me Shutting me in, so I can't see. Sometimes I need to shout; What is this life all about Please, won't someone answer me Help me, please, with my complexity. I need some light to filter through; A helping hand, a rope or two Sometimes life; just doesn't quite fit It is not worth quitting; I need to sit.

James! Yeah, it's been staying around 40° - 50°, and the rains stay maybe a day. I'm glad the weather is broken, and soon I'll be able to get back to the woods where I do my artwork weather permitting. I feel like me in them woods. Best of Wishes, William

Hello, Darlene! Thanks for stopping by, to visit and comment, I appreciate you very much so. I have been in a depression that hasn't lifted for the past 6 months now. This has to be one of the worst I've seen outside the twenty-five years after my tragedy. I'm working on this, truly. Best of Wishes, William
