Professional don't help
"You can't" not useful
Mental Health
The anger sours
How dare they rob
their patients of their dreams
How dare they say you can't
You tell your patient that a mere illness defines them
That they have lost theif abilities
You expect them to sit like a blob
smoking cigerettes
Is this really all the professionals see as the abilities of their patients
Dare a person be honest to a advisor like this
They smile play the role
And hope that god will find someone who believes in their potential
God does not see his children as blobs
God wants all his children to rise
to a feeling of self confidence
to explore all their abilities
Medication should not delete who they are
Medication should not blend you into the norm
Medication should help you reach you dreams
But your abilites and dreams in the eyes of professionals doen't seem to be seen
