Mental Struggles...

jaimeleigh

Does it seem strange at long last I have something good to say...? Sure feel's it, put it that way...

I feel quite content with one at peace with myself again...

How long has it actually been since smiling hasn't seemed like It sinned...?

A day I thought was so sure was far beyond my front door...

So easy I find to get lost, lose sight of myself...

Yet such a struggle to remember I'm not lost at all...

Things just affect me differently that's all...

Mental health is my pain, is my blame, is my shame... 

When it shouldn't be at all... 

It's a struggle that affect's one & all...

It's apart of what makes me, me...

Warts & all...

So I must just try, learn & accept that my madness isn't my sadness...

Things just affect me differently that's all...
