			<description><![CDATA[ Every time I see you
<br>
My head spins
<br>
And my emotions
<br>
Start running wild
<br>
Every time I see you
<br>
My hands are shaking
<br>
And I start aching
<br>
Deep inside
<br>
<br>
If this is love
<br>
What can I do about it
<br>
If this is love
<br>
I want to scream and shout it
<br>
I&#39;m in love with you
<br>
My irresistable you
<br>
<br>
Every time you&#39;re near me
<br>
You pull on my heartstrings
<br>
I hear those violins
<br>
Every time you&#39;re near me
<br>
I&#39;m so high... ]]></description>

			<link>http://madnotbadforum.yuku.com/topic/1868/t/Pleasant-Memories.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ A memory reveals itself,
<br>
And once again,
<br>
The golden fragile waxy disk,
<br>
Spins slowly on, through the air,
<br>
Matched against the flawless cerulean blue,
<br>
Before slowly turning, glinting golden in the sun,
<br>
Dipping ever downwards,
<br>
into the Lush thick green of  soft bracken.
<br>
This memory serves only to evoke others,
<br>
<br>
Walks in the park, evenings in the dark,
<br>
Laughing, Playing, Dancing, Swaying,
<br>
Moving forwards without restraint.
<br>

			<link>http://madnotbadforum.yuku.com/topic/1867/t/The-Setting-Sun.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ The thoughts rise up, garbled and confused,
<br>
A decaying signal,
<br>
Losing power as it travels through the air.
<br>
At first strong and clear, becoming distant.
<br>
Corrupted and fading into static.
<br>
White noise and ambient sound,
<br>
Pressing and pushing against the walls of my mind,
<br>
Trying to burst open my head, like some exotic fruit.
<br>
Leaving its core exposed, left to rot and decompose.
<br>
 my mind resembles the waterways of Venice,
<br>
My thoughts like gondolas,... ]]></description>

			<link>http://madnotbadforum.yuku.com/topic/1866/t/In-Defiance.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ In defiance I speak these words.
<br>
In sadness I think aloud.
<br>
In mourning for the passing of something beautiful,
<br>
I pause.
<br>
The souls smothered vitality,
<br>
 offends my frail sensibilities,
<br>
as it struggles for meaning,
<br>
Covered as it is, in  the False sheen,
<br>
 Of societies greed, like cellophane wrap,
<br>
glistening, as if under the killing heat,
<br>
of cannily hidden spotlights.
<br>
<br>
The lure of this insidious commerciality,
<br>
 killing the diamond... ]]></description>

<br>
I don&#39;t know what do,
<br>
I don&#39;t know how to feel,
<br>
Or what to write,
<br>
Or if these words can heal
<br>
<br>
When I found out the news I cried,
<br>
I cried a lot,
<br>
Not in front of everyone,
<br>
Just by myself
<br>
<br>
I tried to stop,
<br>
I told myself crying would have only made you sad,
<br>
And I told myself you were in a better place
<br>
It only made me cry more... ]]></description>

Mental Health has always been the Cinderella service, because of the stigma we know exists.  My CPN said the other day I echoed the sentiments of some of his other clients - I am on a waiting list for therapy which I am informed is about a year long - when I said, so what do people have to do, then?
