    The state of the mind can

    cause you misery,

    The state of your mind

    is a eerie mystery.

    It plays tricks when you

    don't expect it to

    It can also confirm when

    your life is through.

     

    Your mind is a mystery,

    that we all do know

    And on occasions it

    can make you feel so

    low.

    You fight every day and

    each morbid night

    But the question is; will

    you win the fight?

     

    Some days you are okay -

    some days you are feeling

    low

    Some days are filled

    with laughter - that you

    do always know.

    Life around you does not

    matter anymore,

    You just want out - you

    know the score.

     

    You just go one and live

    each day

    More and more you feel

    more dismay.

    You want to find peace

    and to escape this in-mind

    torture of hell,

    To find your solace - in

    heaven you may dwell.

     

    Behold! The medication -

    yes, another dreary pill

    Is it any wonder you always

    feel ill?

    Your mind does dictate - as

    it causes you in-head pain,

    'Wait! What is that I hear -

    is it a plane?'

     

    Love can conquer that

    we all do know is true

    But sometimes love is

    found by the privileged few.

    Look to the stars and your

    mind will get better,

    The pain you de feel - will

    be better, forever.

     

    God Bless Us All - is what

    I do ask

    And send us a sign to fight

    this task.

    Mental illness is an invisible

    enemy of the Devil,

    But we can beat it - even

    though it's invisible.

     

    Tomorrow is another new

    day - we pray and we hope

    to end this dismay.

    God in Heaven - please

    hear my prayer, I ask this

    of you,

    Help us to survive - and

    our love for you is true.

     

    The Lord is my shepherd

    we love him all the time.

    That is why I write my

    rhyming rhyme.

    The Earth needs a blessing -

    to guide it through,

    And the Saviour we call upon -

    will always be you.
