      <description>&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &lt;STRONG&gt;Depression
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Depression comes like darkness falling.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;
Taking willing souls like rivers flowing.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Slowly consuming like big fires burning.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;When hope is lost our mind is faltering.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Turning minds into raging kaos; a warning.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Somewhere deep, dim light's still glowing.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Take one more step, just keep on going.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;
The mind revives with desire and longing.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;
With hope filled promises and future showing.
&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;
Just dont give up without ever knowing!&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; ----&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Loulou&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Very good. We have &lt;A href="http://www.beyondblue.org.au/connect-with-others/online-forums/community-board/the-poetry-corner---post-your-poems-in-here/page/6#qhQYTHHzvGGEbv8AAOnT_A"&gt;a poetry corner section here on this forum&lt;/A&gt;. I've printed several of my poems there. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I can only write poetry when I'm emotional which used to be more often than now.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Keep writing, it helps one to cleanse their mind.&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi White Knight&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks; I used to write a lot in my younger years and it has been good to put things back into perspective.&amp;nbsp; I have written a few others but they are about Aspergers (my son is an Aspie) and I'm recently diagnosed as an Aspie too! &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So much of my stress, anxiety and depression relates to my identity and things that have happened in my past&amp;nbsp;life and it is all starting to make sense now (being an Aspie)!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Its nice to be Different and not Defective and there is a place for everyone in this World!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Cheers&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;LLB&lt;/P&gt;</description>
