Poor Lukey

Poor Lukey knows of the black dog of despair Just thirty years of age with gray in his brown hair A mental illness has ruined his life To it he has lost his children who are with their mum his ex wife In and out of mental institutions his mind in disarray One without a future that does seem sad to say At present in a suicidal mood life for him Earthly Hell In a mental institution in his padded cell One must pity poor Lukey for the hard life he endure He is a good person in many ways pure Of any hope of happiness he lives in despair For people like him life does seem so unfair The black dog of despair has entered his mind But in his saner moments he is honest and kind.
