Analysis of Bipolar

emmorrison 1971 (Mountain Home)



Wake up,
thoughts are racing
through my mind, oh Lord,
can not stop them sometimes,

never know what is going through
the catacombs of my fifty year
old mind,  yet, medicine and
therapy help,

talking to others helps,
many think bipolars are
going to hit them,

not the case Lord,
anxiety and depression are
part of our minds,

some are suicidal and
homicidal,
not this one, Lord,

we are normal to others,
to those who know us,
we take medicine and talk to
therapist,

we go on with life, we just need
help coping with life.
