Sniper Attack: the moment when you start to feel better after a really bad time #mentalhealth

outside to play

A poem from our Community Correspondent Tony Rea

Sniper Attack – Part 3

First of all; I forgive you Joy so hang around cause this clown ain’t gonna wear one more frown.

And pain? HaHaHaHaHaHaHeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee – A shout out to you, you ain’t no Cain! You’re just a silly stain and I’m gonna wash you off at the rainbow in the rain.

BREATHE – FOCUS

Got you in my sights Darkman (you’re really just a tiny spec of dust on my lens that needs a healthy cleanse)

POP!!!

Now here comes my bullet dipped in a joke, great craic, a Looney Tunes cartoon and the image of a baboon dressed as a sheriff at High Noon receiving a wooden spoon on behalf of Meryl Streep in the heat of mid June. Phew!
See it spinning through time as a positive attitude which I’m gonna wear like a parka hood!!
So take that enemy, away you go, flee.

IT’S OVER NOW
I’m tired? – Yeah, that’s cause I’ve been up all night creating a workshop to help bring people in from the cold and feel a bit more bold.
I’m ashamed? – See the thing is: the Messiah forgives me so I’m not gonna carry that flame anymore.
I’m unsightly? – Its true I’m no Brad Pitt but I am wonderfully made, unique and a masterpiece of God.
I’m lazy? – Not today boy. I’ve got hope, tenacity and Joy.
So me me me? – Don’t think so Darkman. I’d lay down my life for my son, just gave my coat to a guy who needed the sun. Sent my oppressors a Christmas card and wished them the best, honestly that was tough. (Also bought a meal for a woman sleeping rough.)
I’m a coward? – Really? Everyday is a fight between wrong and right – still standing!!!!!!!!!!!!

You gotta ask yourself a question, you’ll never know if you don’t at least try;

IT’S MY LIFE, WHAT AM I GONNA DO?
I’m not gonna hurt myself today, not gonna compare myself with others – just going outside to play.
What does that dude in that song say;
I get knocked down but I get up again, you’re never gonna keep me down
I get knocked down but I get up again, you’re never gonna keep me down
I get knocked down but I get up again, you’re never gonna keep me down
I get knocked down but I get up again, you’re never gonna keep me down.
