PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Life is so hard when you are nuts;
And, you're always thinking, and you have guts.
You have depression and schizophrenia;
And, every day is filled with mania.

And, you are poor, and you need to live;
And, you feel badly for taking, and you want to give.
And, you want to create, and you want to clean;
You want to care for your man; you don't want to be mean.

And, you have to give your kitties lots of attention;
They don't understand your problems; just your good intentions.
And, you try so hard every day;
But, your mental illness fights you in every way.

Sometimes it's so hard to have such an active imagination;
I need a can of beer, and I need to take my medication!
And, you are tired of your crazy Mama;
And, every day is filled with drama.

Sometimes, you're sad and you want to cry;
And, at the year's beginning, your fiance wanted to die.
And, that has messed you up for life;
When you are crazy, and you want to be a crazy man's wife.

Yes, you have no money, and you are broke;
And, all of your money goes toward bills, food, weed, alcohol and smokes.
But, you know you accomplished a lot this year;
When you recovered from many and many-a-tear!

And, you and your man have had physical and mental pain;
And, it has made you both more insane.
Oh, life is so bizarre from dawn to dawn;
Especially, when you see an old woman die out on the lawn.

But, you feel good because you temporarily don't eat meat;
But, you still eat white instead of whole wheat.
Things have changed since 2009;
About, being a vegetarian, I no longer whine!
