Ptsd For Me
P.T.S.D FOR ME
Fragile feelings,
Where ghosts of past intrude,
Overwhelming of soul,
A comprehension felt and noted
It never goes away,
Mostly stays in background
And in inappropriate times
Steals and raises its ugly head,
A timely reminder for me
To never take for granted,
When wellness walks the pathe with me,
Mental health most take no notice of
But for me mental health is my constant companion,
And barometer of how I feel on any given day,
When well – celebrate!
When fragile – realize I have trod a well-worn track
Of many ups and downs,
And many tears welling up and spilling out uncontrolled,
And circumstances of no jurisdiction over
And when down in dumps with vulnerability,
Reach out,
Talk,
Engage,
Realize I have a team,
A team that I trust,
A team engaged for me,
To help steer this olde warrior to a personal glory
And a victory of my day,
And never forget fragile feelings
When ghosts of past intrude.
