A.M. Belsey - Mind Control

(written at the age of 14 in 1984 after attempting to take my own life.)

You are yourself,
And life is yours.
No one controls your mind.
Some try controlling,
And the weak minds fail.
But you are strong
And life is yours.
Control your own mind,
Or you will never survive.

A.M. Belsey
