State of Healing

Lying in bed with so much on her mind

Look a little closer, 

And a broken angel is all you'll find. 

Her mental illness  is a losing war she can't win

Look at her scars dancing on her skin

What is it that takes over her brain

Sometimes happy 

Sometimes overly insane

It's begining to rain

The storm is here 

As she shuts down

Clutching her pain

Another form of misguidance

Brings her to her fears

The love she had inside has disappeared

She  becomes so cold hearted and unfeeling, To justify her mental state of healing.
