My Crazy
Mental health is my life
Self made strife
A dark shadow over my head
The negativity my brain is fed
Telling me to hide
My brain sometimes locks me inside
No one to confide
Watching as the world goes by
Can't help but cry
Silently I shout
I feel left out
Like a rollercoaster ride through hell
Waiting for the next spell
I hide it well
So many different a mood
Very misunderstood
Why am I
Tears I cry
Still I'm willing to try
Life is pain
My soul, this stain
So alone
Is this life I'm shown
Walking on by
Afraid to die
No one would see
Locked inside
I hide
From what I can't say
Always been this way
Blinded by right
Lost in the night
Why this fight
Love, I tried
In the end I cried
Memories they haunt
Taunt
Flaunt
Showing me the things I've lost
Pain is what love cost
My brain
Maybe it is insane
The pain real
Why must I feel
Words forever bouncing through my head
The rollercoaster ride
From somewhere inside emotions slamming me from the moment I awake
Every breath I take
This crazy ride
I fight to hide
This must be insane
My broken brain
Happy, sad
At the same time glad
I sit there in the night
On goes this fight
Isn't right
One more day
Lost in what to say
The negativity my brain is sending
Never ending
Emotions always blending
But the crazy always seems to win
Why am I here
Dealing with my fear
Life ,love, all like the past
Went by so fast
Left a tear in my eye
So softly I cry
But still I try.
I stand strong
Life seems long
Love goes untold
Life starts to unfold
As I grow so old
It is so confusing
I find it amusing
Strength I pull out from somewhere inside
Helps me hang on throughout lifes crazy ride
