Depression

I am familiar with depression descending slowly, a light fog gradually deepening in colour and density until my psyche has been cloaked over so completely I am walking around unaware of any joy. It can take weeks or months until a ray of sunshine breaks through and makes me aware of my circumstances.

But this morning I woke with depression draped around me intact and all consuming, a weight I could not ignore. I know that this day I will have to put one foot forward after another and pretend for some short while that everything is okay.

And it will be.
