She dresses in black everyday

She keeps her hair simple and plain

She never wears make up

But no one would care if she did anyway

She doesn't recall yesterday

Faces seem twisted and strange

But she always wakes up

Only to find she'd been miles away

Absence of awareness losing time

A lapse of perception losing time

Wanting to escape

She had created a way to survive

She learned to detach

From herself a behavior that kept her alive

Hope in the face of our human distress

Helps us to understand

The turbulence deep inside

That takes hold of our lives

Shame and disgrace over mental unrest

Keeps us from saving those we love

The grace within our hearts

And the sorrow in our souls

Deception of fame vengeance of war

Lives torn apart losing oneself

Spiraling down feeling the walls closing in

A journey to find the answers inside our illusive mind
