My Dreams by Valerie Parente
I keep on wishing
someone will listen
as I try to make sense
of my mental illness
so I put it in print
then decided to distance
spent time with my best friend
then she went to heaven
but the world keeps spinning
so I keep on living
trying to make a difference
while I feel her within
I hope my story transcends.

I’m listening
as I often
feel the same way.
The mind is like
a mixed up bowl of spaghetti.
We need someone to
be a fork
and gently twirl our thoughts
into something that makes sense.
