Please ignore the aliens

They are taking over my brain

Impulses come and Impulses go

Hoping that my soul will still remain.

My soul is slowly dying

Remembering my past

The life and love I hold within

If only they would last.

The aliens within

Strip me of my Hope,

My Smile, My Strength, My Determination

I forget the tools to cope.

I know that I am worth the fight

I don't like to admit

I can not do this on my own

As I reach up from this pit.

This pit of isolation

Desperation and Dispair

I want to find my inner strength

To grow and become aware.

Aware of possibilities,

A life where I am free

Free to Learn, Love and Live

A life where I can see.

My truth that comes from within

I can see my outer strength

Strength to reach out, for your support

I will go to any length.

You are stronger, than this monster

That works to control my brain

With your hand, support and truth,

My soul will still remain.

Note: The only way to keep the aliens from getting in is to reach out to others. Find the truth within yourself and you will find and love the "real you". The real you that lives in your heart, deep within your soul, the you that wants to finally be free of fear, and of doubt. What will become of me, how will I survive, will I sink or will I swim, it might be easier just to dive.
