Death Of An Angel by Joseph Smith
I once knew a lady named
Misery
she lived in a damaged world
she calls to me in transparent dreams
a lonely star
outside
the closed universe
she was my twisted soul
long ago
she experienced
the darkest of
pain
beauty was something
she could not
believe
I once knew an angel named
Evil
she traveled like a
ghost into the shadows
her heart was dying for some form of
life
all seems balanced
now
the angel burns to
die

This is a sampling of my so-called happy life. Depression is an evil monster that drowns you in a deep, swirling black hole. Writing on subjects in the soul of depression has a healing quality - it inspires me to seek out my darker emotions to convert them into positive energy
