I Meant Well
By : Francesca Seopa
Heaven knows I meant well,
Truth is what I speak,
Love is what I seek,
Honesty is what humanity leaks.
My body and soul have a longing,
To feel like I belong.
Oh, how I longed and prayed for rest.
This safe haven has placed all the Psalms in my palms.
Heaven knows I meant well,
When I cried in silence,
But I never knew that mental health and silence have no alliance.
An epiphany.
A feast that sparked an awakening.
Heaven knows I meant well,
How I longed for someone to listen to my cry for help.
Rough seas are surely part of life and will help propel me.
I am normal there’s nothing wrong with me. Finally I can be.
Thank you for being with me. I look forward to seeing you here again. Let us rebuild a healthy state of mind.
Love,
Francesca
