Bipolar life



Up and down,
Left and right,
This is the truth;
That I write.

Love or hate,
Black or white,
I wish I could feel better!
But I know I won’t tonight.

My soul is happy !
Then it’s empty!
I’m alright,
Until I’m not ok.

I’m laughing, then crying,
I’m happy then depressed,
My brain feels so bipolar,
How do I get out of this mess?

I need no sleep,
To be rested.
I need sleep,
But I’m restless!

Somebody help me!
I’m so lost.
I feel something,
Then I don’t.
 
I wanna be happy,
Without being sad.
Just set me free!

    slow and steady wins the race, find the way to keep the pace, this might require a kind of faith, that better days will come
    many have health problems but do not know it, doctor might not even tell you or know, ask questions and get to know many things about good health

    a fun poem and not sure if it's about you but the above came to mind.
