Something Important

Hurtful words followed by deriding deeds.
There is no escape, there is not an out.
How to handle the necessary needs?

I fear for our sanity, I have doubt.
Moods swinging from serene to confusion.
There is no escape, there is not an out.

Moments remembered, then self-delusion.
Cherish the memories, and times lucid.
Moods swinging from serene to confusion.

Conversing in language not pellucid,
a notion there is something important.
Cherish the memories, and times lucid.

Kindness offsets the often discordant.
Compassion and patience oft rewarded,
a notion there is something important.

Recognition a blessing awarded.
A cruel disease within humankind.
Compassion and patience oft rewarded.
Jeckyll and Hyde terrorizing a mind.
