Those who fight mental illness,
They are not awarded medals
for the bravery displayed upon
the daily battlefields of pain,
judgement and loneliness.

Every new darkling dawn is a trial
of their strength and endurance
in a heartless and callous world,
Their invisible badge of honour
is known only to themselves,

One day, far from nightmares,
The sun shall spin for them
a necklace woven without chains,
Freedom shall dance in their hair,
And madness will echo in raindrops.
