don't eat your hurt, instead take your power back  by looking at yourself and believing that you're stronger than whats trying to beat you.

This is nothing to make fun of, Depression hurts, it is an illness and people should pay more attention. I feel bad and I can totally relate to what you're expressing. Keep your head up. I will pray for you and your situation. Be encouraged. This too shall pass.

First of all, accept my condolences for your tragic loss, also, know that I appreciate your unselfishness in sharing your pain with others who too may be feeling depressed; no one can and should say; "move on"...grief is personal and felt over many levels at many a time...may I share a few poems on death and loss:

The Mourning of Our Night     by Jeff Pierce

She went in the night drifting off and out of sight

The still was deafening and the quiet crushing

That was the day she was set free

Having made her peace and having said goodbye to grief

Her sad eyes sparkled as she squeezed out one last smile

It had been a long, tiresome journey, but, this was alas the last mile

Oh, how folks who once denied death, now accept it with open eyes

Curtains rise and curtains fall on morning and evenings

In the “afternoon sun of a life” some curtains are drawn

As our tears flow free emotions sink like stones and rise as if steam

What a flood of sorrow that chokes laughter and glee

We have been taken captives and she has been set free

 In this the mourning of our night totally unprepared to bear

The weight of defeat; doves shall not fly with torn wings and cement feet

For now all our warmth and love have become but a memory

In this the mourning of our night

 Death slipped in and avoided our watchful eyes

We thought we would be strong and were willing to fight

The blow that we tensed our bodies to receive

Was far more callous and relentless than one could have conceived

Hello,

You're quite welcome! Yes, I agree that we need a forum where we can put it all out there...well, we all have each other. Not all poets here care enough to share; some are like greedy men who get their's and then roll over (they post their "masterpieces") and care not to read or reply to other's tales.

Jeff
