Rescue Me Poem by Martin Greyford

What am I supposed to do
When the person I love
Has been taken to a mental asylum?
Tell me, how will I copy
When they say she is a lunatic?

I can't really pretend anymore
That is a nurse
When's she's a mental patient.
She is not insane but
They treat her like one.

They say she's hearing voices
When it's the whisper of my voice
Carried to her by the wind.
She's pure in heart and
Her hands very clean.

Please let her out.
I want to see the woman
I call my girlfriend.
The lady that completes me
And gives me the inner joy.

She can be dirty to you
But she's my girl.
She can walk bear footed,
That's not a problem
She's my better half.
