"The Lost Diamond: A Tale of Depression"
I feel like I've lost my sparkle
A diamond tumbling through murky waters
I keep reaching blindly into the ocean to see if I can feel it with my fingertips
My efforts become tireless and I lay back hoping to float while I sleep through the darkness
The tears come when I don't want them and they are never around when I need them
Fire can't burn bright enough to see the ocean floor
I keep rubbing sticks together to see if it will ignite but the rain won't stop
The waters keep rising pulling me further and further away from the depth
The strength is gone and the hope is fading
I can only see a tiny glimpse now
I remind myself that a diamond is still a diamond even on the ocean floor
One day if I'm patient, the diamond will be tossed upon the shore
