Wrote this for a Sikhs mental health awareness group...

Let me know what you guys think..


What's this rage I feel inside, 
he called me a Paki I can’t let that slide.

He looked at me funny and made a sound,
maybe he wants me to put him in the ground.

Where does stop? Where do I draw the line?
I flee the scene I committed a crime. 

But something wrong somethings not clear
it’s the rage mixed with a 6 years olds fear, 

did he look at me funny or was he saying hello? 
I can’t tell anymore my I don’t want to know. 

Got a call it’s about my dad, 
he’s been stabbed and robbed but I didn’t feel sad. 

I feel a rage coming over me quick
I don’t know what to do it’s making me feel sick, 

I go into town and start a fight
I beat a man like it’ll make everything right. 

He begs and pleads but I don’t hear his cry’s 
my friends all stop me telling me he’ll die. 

There was no way out I didn’t know what to do 
I couldn’t continue I belonged in a zoo, 

I picked up a blade and put it to my wrist, 
20 years on the planet had brought me to this.

I thought of my parents my brother and my Nan, 
I wanted to do it I really can! 

Slit my wrists and the rage would be released,
it would be better if I was deceased.

But at that moment my phone started to ring, 
It was my younger cousin he said quick let me in. 

I put down the blade and opened the door, I was greeted by his smile excitement and his pride 
he asked me to follow him outside, 

he’d bought a new car which he was excited to show 
he said get in quick come on lets go . 

As we cruised around the neighbourhood looking for his future wife, 
I wanted to tell him he just saved my life. 

As I sit here now I realise it wasn’t rage
it was loneliness inside, as I watch my kids play without a care in the world I remember the fear that I felt at that age, 

the uncertainty the attacks and the rage. It took me a while realise, 
the rage I was feeling was loneliness inside. 

Mental health affects us all in different ways.. It’s okay not to be okay

Think "going strong" might be over-egging it a shade, but a few of us are still here, hanging on grimly.

I do the od bit of poetry but...

My inkwell brims with verse unfit,
My speech tongue-tied; my page unwrit,
Yet though I be misunderstood,
Prefer I this to words of wood.

Remember when there used to be enough of us to form a clique?
