[hometext] => I wrote this poem after watching a program on mental illness and some of the success stories.
[bodytext] => Many things are no longer the same. The feeling of despair has disappeared. My depression over me no longer reigns. Again, I can feel the wonderful stillness inside As I sit under the rejuvenating rays of the sun. I will hide my face no longer in shame and despair I thought mental madness could not happen to me. The violence played havoc in my mind for a long time My scattered thoughts did not make any sense at all. I would rise with a clear and stable mind each day, Although, by night into madness my mind would fall. Many friends, my psychopathic rages have run off. My confused mind often played tricks and lied to me. I often ran from the demons that were not there, And had conversations with people I did not see. At last, I sit looking over the pages of my life, None of the things are no longer the same. The feeling of shame and despair has disappeared. My mental madness over me no longer reigns.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
