Poetry
The pressure of the pain inside,
Formed diamonds in my mind,
Tempting me to throw it in,
To leave it all behind.
My mind sitting in dark rambling,
What pulled me out was friends and family.
They taught me love and affection,
Because of them I had hope through connection.
I can’t believe I was once so lonely,
But now my heart feels warm and homely.
This world is one I no longer fear,
My mind is straight and spirit is clear.
As I walk this path of self-discovery,
I now have faith in my recovery.
The pressure of the pain inside,
Formed diamonds in my mind,
Tempting me to throw it in,
To leave it all behind.
My mind sitting in dark rambling,
What pulled me out was friends and family.
They taught me love and affection,
Because of them I had hope through connection.
I can’t believe I was once so lonely,
But now my heart feels warm and homely.
This world is one I no longer fear,
My mind is straight and spirit is clear.
As I walk this path of self-discovery,
I now have faith in my recovery.

Self Reflection
By Sofia
Often I try to self-reflect which turns into waves of rings around me. This picture reflects my days in general; life is static, surrounded by waves around.

Beyond the Steel Mesh
By Anonymous
The cage stands bold, with its steel-clad mesh. For within its grip, it’s us it holds. Ten foot walls, of cold creme concrete. For outside we muster, like horses in stalls.

Burning Broken Thoughts
By Wolverine
I know you think you’re broken far too much to ever heal properly, like all those other folk that make life seem so real.
