It’s Okay to Feel Depressed

-------------

Its okay to be depressed

It happens to the best

Some days you’ll just feel down

Some days you’ll do the town

----------------------------------------

Some days your fears will rule

That doesn’t mean you’re a fool

You know you fight disease

So at times you’ll be displeased

----------------------------------------

Don’t tell most folks what’s wrong

Or you won’t be friends for long

Keep that part to yourself

and talk of general health

---------------------------------------

Should you feel jittery

Count to 8, breathe slowly

Keep yourself distracted

So shakes won’t be protracted

--------------------------------------

Always take your medicines

To them add vitamins

Walk or ride a bike

Even if your bike’s a trike

-------------------------------------

No one can do for you

The things you have to do

Be determined to win

So your new life can begin

-------------------------------------

Do things that make you happy

Clean house but keep it snappy

Fill your days with laughter

Look forward to the Hereafter

I wrote it, after losing the 1st poem. My laptop ate that one.
