the church bell tolls
one, two, three times for my soul
God will never take away
my reason to pray

sighing between sips of cyanide
by the sea side
my pace a little slower
my eyes a little lower
it's all quite hazy
living in a day dream
Watching the children
Cry as Palestinians die
No more happiness
And joy in Palestine
Today as our land stolen away
Our homes blown apart
People falling apart
Evil cheering away
Evil cheering today
Lives destroyed every day
But I Promise you
I'll love and pray
For every Palestinian today..
Life
Let me get deeper
Let me hold you
so tight
that your soul
can be linked to mine
was a costly equanimity
I scavenged from the wars...

a lifetime spent, inventing ways
to close revolving doors...
mental health issues always come back around
it's about finding ways to, accept, recognise and deal with them,
sometimes, it's a piece of ****...other times....not so!
But, hey!..it is what it is......
Every sip I take
Every bad choice I make
Nothing makes me forget
That every single time
..
I break
Bird in a cage
With no bars.

It's cut free
Yet it remains.
This was inspired by the poem "Caged Bird" by Maya Angelou. It has basically nothing to do with what inspired it, but just thought I'd let you guys know.
My mental health is not doing okay.
I’m not doing okay.
But i pretend I’m okay.
I’ll be okay.
Probably.
Hopefully.
Maybe.
I’m fine.
It’s fine.
Everything is fine.
