Even little things can jump start their pain.
An everyday activity, minor or mundane.
A trigger pulled, and into loneliness to drift.
To long for companionship, a friendship gift.

Somebody to stick around and understand.
A shoulder to offer and the grip of a hand.
A person with patience with an open door
To put up with stories they've heard before.

Just to listen as listening can go a long way.
Not only the experts know what's best to say.
Depression can be a dark and lonely place.
And sufferers alone shouldn't have it to face.
