Mental Distress

Every day and every second Layers upon layers of stuff Carelessly piled on the mind Trickle down to the subconscious And forms a layer of mud A wishy washy soup of molten lava Ready to ferociously erupt Into the realm of consciousness A psychological disaster of unknown proportion Is sitting at the bottom of our subconscious Hysteria and delusions loom at the gate of our consciousness Mental illness threatens our colourful minds Overworked and overburdened The conscious mind is on edge Overthinking and worry Stress and anxiety Erodes our mental capacity And corrodes our abilities Robing us of all the innovative ideas And the expected long healthy life ahead
