Bi-Polar Am I
Happy is good
Sad is good
Too happy is bad
Too sad is bad
I would be glad
If I could just be happy and sad
But no.i have to over do
everything!
I never know from day to day
which way I will be
can't make plans
ahead of time
no way..not me!!
I could show up at a wedding
sobbing uncontrollably
Or show up at a funeral
laughing hysterically..
I have no way of knowing..
who me will be..
at any given moment..
So see!!
Up and down..like a pogo stick
sometimes crashing..
sobbing from the pain
sometimes just keep on going..
elated beyond belief..
Sometimes Wonderful and great..!!
Sometimes useless, no good..
should be buried in a crate...!!
Why can't I just be happy or sad...
not severely depressed or manic?
Today I have crashed...
Tomorrow...who knows
I may be on top of the world
but I know I will fall off again
into the darkness of hell.
I know so well...
I am so tired of this roller coaster
ride
Please let me off!!!
I want to be on a nice merry go
round...going slowly around and
around..not the killer roller coaster
rideI am on now...flying up and
down and all around...out of
control...
Please let me off....I keep
screaming...but no one listens..
I beg. I plead..please..HELP!!!!
