Help us

Have a thought for depressed folks
And this festive time of year
for they do not have fun at all
So do not force your cheer

Maybe they feel quite lonely
And do not find it good
and comments like baa humbug
don’t put them in the mood

Maybe they need a helping hand
And kindness to be showed
Maybe a little come and join
a welcoming bestowed

A simple wish for everyone
to join and to be loved
sometimes a sad person thinks
that corners they are shoved

But then my words fall on death ears
For depressed people yearly
are ignored by their human friends
and never thought of dearly

The sad thing of the matter is
some may now say I’m wrong
help them out when you can
because you may notice when they’re gone.
