Poem -
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
SHE IS A GODDESS IN THE EYES OF MEN,
YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL, A NATURAL TEN,
WELL SPOKEN, WITH A STEADY HEAD,
BUT IS TRANSFORMED INTO A BEAST
WHEN SHE FORGET TO TAKE HER MEDS.
RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES,Â
THIS CALM SEA,Â
BECOMES WAVES OF DEATH,
FROM HER BEAUTIFUL LIPS,
PROFANITY RIDES HER BREATH.
MENTAL ILLNESS IS A KILLER OF THE BRAIN,Â
JUST THE SHAKING OF A LEAF,
CAN DRIVE ONE INSANE.
LOVE ONES ARE LEFT CRIPPLED WITH FEARÂ
LIVING THIS REAL LIFE DRAMAÂ
THAT MENTAL ILLNESS BRINGS.
WILFORD BARKER.

Beauty and the beast...indeed! There are sooo many types and facets of mental illness ... hope this lady gets hers sorted x
So true my friend, I am aware that I have only scratch the surface of this illness.
but it’s a very sad and scary thing to see play out in the streets of my neighborhood..
all ages and races of people affected by this disease.. one minute having a pleasant conversation..
then the next…. SNAP like a dry twig, talking out of their minds and becoming a Danger to themselves and others.
Absolutely! It really can affect anyone at any time. We know how creative the human mind can be at the best of times so when a mind gets poorly ...well ... hold on to your hats! Thank goodness, with proper treatment and support network it can be helped or even cured x
