I do not have a voice
SHE ASKS:
Why is your face black
Why is your smile upside down
Why are your eyes raining
Why are you wearing a frown
 
I REPLY:
The darkest place in my soul
Has just raised its ugly head
The saddest place in my heart
Has made me wish I was dead
 
I just had a terrible thought
That my mind will be impaired
From this mental stinging wasp
Buzzing inside my head, i'm scared
 
I don't know how to live with it
I don't know how to cope
I don't know what i'm going to do
I don't want to lose all hope
 
Just as I feel i'm doing so well
The damn thing reappears
Telling me confusing messages
Whispering in my ears
 
Why can't my life be normal
Even just for a single day
Do I know what normal is
Should I wish my life away
 
NOW I ASK:
Why is my face black
Why is my smile upside down
Why are my eyes raining
Why am I wearing a frown
 
AND I REPLY:
I have a mental disorder
A horrific disease of the mind
I cant quite learn to cope with it
BUT THEN, IT IS ALL IN MY MIND
 
 
 

I have written this poem as a dedication to someone very dear to me; who has somehow managed to bounce back!!
