Please Still Love Me

My world is dark and lonely, please love me while I'm in my world as you would in yours. Sometimes family members and friends do not realize that it seems they take their love away from us when we are sick and in a time of most need. Mental illness is difficult for friends and family, but most difficult to experience by the person that has it. Sometimes we seem fine and that's when we get most of your attention. For some, when we get sick we can feel you pull away from us. You may not mean to do it or even realize you are doing it, but it happens and it hurts. We know you don't understand what we are going through and that's why it's hard to be supportive. Mental illness can be in any form: depression, bipolar disorder also called manic depressive, mania or a manic state, schizophrenia, etc. Please understand that I am not lumping all people together -- just the one's that shy away when we are in so much pain. Here is one translation of the lyrics: Ave Maria, Maria of whom I sing We are asking you for mercy For people who have already been waiting so long Totally without hope Totally without hope See there, their unhappy lives It hungers deep, from fear of death Millions live here on the earth Still yet, in greatest need Ave Maria Ave Maria, Saint Maria Hear my prayers Maria Where much suffering has already occurred Why always does more hurt follow more hurt Let the people have faith again Let them understand and forgive Then all peoples could become friends And all the races could be brothers Ave Maria
