With Good Mental Health I have…. Geraldine Walsh-Whiteside
With good mental health I have
Turned my baby step into a longer stride
I now know better than to run and hide
I jump and I seek, no more am I meek.
With good mental health I have
Gained new insight into me,
Now everything’s not a catastrophe
All things are possible, I truly believe,
I no longer sit alone and grieve.
With good mental health I have
Been able to meet and have a laugh
Or take sheer delight in a bubbly bath
I now sing and I dance
And don’t walk around in a trance.
With good mental health I have
Turned my fight into a cause
Only to reflect do I sit or pause
With help and support
We can all be re-taught.
With good mental health I have
Recaptured and re-invented my world
Who knew how this story would have unfurled
How I re-entered your life anew
The journey maybe long but it’s worth it too!
