Mental Poem by Lushan Massri

Mental

Rating: 4.5


I scream. I shout. I defy.
I kick. I scratch. I lie.

I'm crazy. I'm psycho.
I'm mental...

Hurt. I'm in pain. Tortured. Help my soul, for it cries out in vain.
It weeps for the escape it can't have. Cries for the escape it can't get.

Somebody help me. I can't be crazy! There is so much more to me.
Don't judge me! Please, this can't, this can't be!

I've only lost too much. I can be better, I'll be better.

Why me? Why now? Why today?

Please, somebody, anybody, hear me out? Listen to my plead?
I know I'm not crazy. You need to see the otherside me... please...

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Hi Marie Angel - this is a difficult poem to comment on but as an Angel I feel I should try. I have read and reread it and for its anaguish (its is a Poesie Noire) and frankness it deserves a MAX (TEN) . The first four lines describes the phenomena live five gives the reason 'HURT - I'm in pain - tortured - help my soul - for it cries out in vain'. Is this really you Marie - have you asked your Guardian Angel for help? You soul is really torured (according to the poem) 'It weeps for the escape it can't have - Cries for the escape it can't get'. God says 'I am the God who will and can heal you' this level of angst requires much PRAYER. (Lines 7 & 8) You are pleading for help you are pleading for us not to be judgmental. The PH Family is very loving - You can express your feelings as graphically as you like on Poemhunters - those of us who are directed to you site - really love you and will help and cherish you and will never be judgmental. There is a ray of hope in Line 9 'I can be better - I will be better'. (Line 10) We all ask why Marie we have all been there and cried 'WHY - Me - Now - Today - WHY? However release does come we hear your cri de coeur and rush to your side to help. We (Human Angels) answer the call in Lines 11 & 12 'Please somebody anybody hear me out - Listen to my plea I know i'm not crazy' In your lovely poem Guardian Angel I did see the other side of you Marie and it was so so BEAUTIFUL. The person in GA is the real you as God intended you to be - The person in Mental is what Satan wants you to be - you need to let go and let GOD. I will help you and pray for you each day. Love you in Poetry - JOHN.
