A Mental Health Poem…

Author: a mental health poem by Bad Boy Mike. 

Moments

life passing me by

all my memories, sparkle in my mind
eyes closed, shining stars in the sky
dark nights, fireflies
the lights dim, as life passes me by

the morning’s bright, I can’t catch the light
still looking for a jar, as the sun sets in the sky
don’t know what day it is, caught up in the lies
my desire dims, as life passes me by

what do you mean you forgot, how could you not remember
I’m still waiting for you, stuck in December
my heart is frozen here in time, I missed the summer skies
it beats cold and numb, as life passes me by

you woke me up, you knocked me out
here I lay, it’s the middle of the day
everywhere to go, nowhere to be
how my life would live, if I wasn’t me

too tired to run, no hope to catch it
close my eyes, and say goodbye
stars are bright, them I don’t see
I embrace the pain, as life passes me by

It was my concept for Bad Boy Mike's Blog so that those with little or no public voice or audience could Author public writings that the world could have access to. I also needed a platform for expressing my journey through 12+ years in the Ohio prison system. That has led to my development of a 2nd Chance Program for prisoners to "Do The Work" to actually and realistically prepare and change their lives for success in life after walls. It has become my passion. Many volunteers are behind the scenes helping with this project. Your support would be greatly appreciated if you too would like to help.
