Again, I can feel the wonderful stillness inside
As I sit under the rejuvenating rays of the sun.
I will hide my face no longer in shame and despair
I thought mental madness could not happen to me.

The violence played havoc in my mind for a long time
My scattered thoughts did not make any sense at all.
I would rise with a clear and stable mind each day,
Although, by night into madness my mind would fall.

Many friends, my psychopathic rages have run off.
My confused mind often played tricks and lied to me.
I often ran from the demons that were not there,
And had conversations with people I did not see.

At last, I sit looking over the pages of my life,
None of the things are no longer the same.
The feeling of shame and despair has disappeared.
My mental madness over me no longer reigns.
