This insightful book of poems and prose walks you through life before, during and after depression. It tells of the good years when everything seemed to go well. It tells of the depths of depression where there seems no way out, and it shows you that there is a light at the end of that dark tunnel that leads you to the rest of your life.


I know, I've been there - no hit or miss
I even enjoyed stepping into the abyss
But I failed in my mission - got found too soon
So I just got angry and planned my next move


But they put me in hospital under lock and key
And tried to help me but they just couldn't see
That I'd made my mind up to round that bend
And bring my misery to a final end


Then family and friends gathered from near and far
Some by plane and others by car
They never questioned the path I chose
They just let me know that they'd always be close
