The fog of melancholy

Found me alluring

Robbing me in

And dragging me away.

'

I flew with imperceptible wings

Along with birds

Who were unlike me

In high spirits.

'

"Hope", they said

"Get higher

And you will see

The unseen

Which will disintegrate the fog

You are stuck in.

Our child!

The unseen

Which will lend you a parachute

And let you land safe

On the carpet of cheer."

'

To soar higher was not easy

But that is what I did

And that is how

The fog

Heaved me out.

It's okay to be depressed. As long as you make sure to come back to earth and start to smile. Not the fake one. But the real one. :)
