SCRAPS #051: MENTAL HEALTH

My mental health is struggling

Like an old model t engines sputtering

Trip over words stumbling and stuttering

Underneath my breath all I hear is muttering

How can I clear this fog

We're all just a number

Gears a wheel full of cogs

Wonder day dreaming slumber

Here lies the flies for the frog

Truth lies down sick as a dog.

Something is not quite right

Constant feel of fight or flight

Breath of light or dark of sin.

Really doesn't matter lose or win.

Days and weeks blurring together

Rain pouring down

My mood reflects the weather

Keep your head up or drown

Focus ready for whatever

Spread my winds pluck my loose feathers

Got to learn from my mistakes

Day by day one at a time

Cleaner air intakes it shakes

I'm destined to find

What true love really makes

Whatever it has taken bacon pancakes

Open the door step outside

Out of my shell nowhere to hide

Thank the universe you're alive

Take a breath before the deep dive

Life is suffering existence is pain

I don’t want to feel this way again.

Negativity will leave a stain

Set a chain reaction to the brain

Sometimes we feel completely insane

One way ticket on a runaway train

Pick your poison or pick your strain

Clouds clear out there is no more rain.

Something is not quite right

Constant feel of fight or flight

Breath of light or dark of sin.

Really doesn't matter lose or win.
