My World

Ok so I have dealed with this for years,

Yet I know the Lord has wiped away my tears,

Is this really the life meant for me to live?

Well ok let me find room so there’s understanding to give,

I have a mind that’s just not well,

Weather caught up in the clouds or burning in Hell,

Weather dancing with angels or sitting catatonic in a haze,

With my mind racing staying up for days,

I have seen visions I just can’t explain,

I have lived a life of being insane,

My life was shattered I lived in fear,

Insanity ruled my life year after year,

I burdened my family and friends I have lost,

With the label of mental illness I paid the cost,

Within my Illness I would pray,

That a light of hope would find me some day,

Feeling lost feeling as if I had no guide,

I found the Lord was at my side,

Never did he leave me since my Illness began,

As I felt I would get no help from man,

A lifetime of illness I was bound,

Yet the Lord granted me graces to be sane and sound,

I take my medication and see the doctor every other week,

But with all honesty the Lords love and graces near my heart I keep,

I pray please Lord don’t let my Illness upset my day,

Let me live a good life Mental Illness get out of my way!

When I lost friends and my families respect,

The Lord said have no worries you belong in the flock I protect.
