My Daily Struggle With Mental Illness

Tragically, I am insane
I have a defective brain

At times, I have psychotic breaks
A very heavy toll on my mind, it makes

I struggle with major depression
It’s a constant frustration

I’m always fatigued and sad
Having this illness makes me mad

This mental suffering is due to the Fall
My only hope is the effectual call

I hear voices in my head
They fill me with dread

I see demons inside people all around
Each demon makes a ghastly sound

I have anxiety, causing much stress
My mind, I pray God will bless
