Everyone is welcome

Never have I been so insulted by you
I prepared a meal which was beautiful
You were sat to receive my dish
You decided to take the piss
3 hours I slaved for that food
Your comments oh so lewd
What was it that you didn’t like?
Why did you have to snipe?
Well do you know what you can do?
Next time make your own food
Just one last thing do finish off
Splat, enjoy your food, I’m off!

Oh I love the peace when we come to the park
I can hear the birds sing and lark
Watching the joggers as they pass on by
Reflecting on life, not asking why
I love the sun as it warms me up
Not too hot, its just enough
As I watch the water rippling in the sun
Kids feeding ducks, having fun
I stop to breathe and forget it all
Before I leave heaven and I fall

Why do we seek acceptance in everything we do?
Sometimes I wonder if we even have a clue
We go from day to day just getting by
Living out our day throughout our own lies
Sometimes we reflect, a little too much
Sometimes we don’t, how much is enough?
Is it really acceptance that we seek?
Is it really self doubt that creeps?
But our biggest fear in all of this
The worst fact, that mustn’t be missed
We fear rejection above all else
It hits us hard, our mental health
Until we can’t go on, it eats us alive
Because with self doubt, we can never thrive

I sometimes wonder what’s the point
As I do the same each day
Depression seeping deep within
It makes my mind decay
As I search for a way to change my life
And escape from this hell
That jolting felling deep within
Will it never quell?

If I could follow you to the moon
Would I die on the way?
If I could die happy
I’d prefer it that way

You ask me to think about you more
To show you more love
How can I give you all this?
When you have suppressed your love

How are we expected to talk?

I can’t put my finger on it
Why I feel so down
This clouded feeling
That’s hanging around
I feel almost sick
But I don’t know why
I haven’t even got
Any appetite
I can’t control my emotions
So angry in my heart
Can’t pull it from me
I don’t know which path
How can I escape
From this torturous hell?
Is there an escape?
Is it a closed shell?
Its vice like grip
Constantly on me
Oh how I wish
I could be free
To breathe deeply
Clean virgin air
To stop suffocating
To fight the despair
Does happiness exist?
Will I feel it one day?
Or am I in hell hotel
Destined to stay?

This is
My once upon a time
When the suffering commenced
And I began to rhyme
Family problems
With mum and dad
They were separated
I never liked that
As I was scared
Scarred in my heart
As a lost soul
Where to start?
Easy to cry
Never understood
Impossible to help
As if you could?
My shell protecting
From the outside
Impossible to open
This was my life
I would curl in a ball
To be alone
I hated myself
This was my home
Quiet at school
Colorblind too
Difficult to make friends
Oh so true
I would hurt myself
To inflict pain
Scratching my arms
What did it gain?
Burning myself
To suffer some more
Days dragged by
Like a chore
I wished to punish
To harm myself
Through all the torment
The mental health
Anger so dark
Eating away
Hard to push out
To keep at bay
Although crying out
Silently so
I needed help
For it to go
If someone was there
To listen, just that
It would of helped
A selfless act

A man saw a snake
Surrounded by flames
He tried to help it
Bitten and in pain
.
The man dropped the snake
Back into the fire
He looked around him
His courage to be admired
.
He found a metal bar
The snake wrapped around
He placed the bar down
Carefully to the ground
.
A passer by saw his act
Questioning why he helped
“The snake’s instinct is to bite”
“But I just had to help”
