Please Keep Going

Life. It happens, as we scurry along.
Blustering and charging, nothing's wrong. 
It's just. Well, life. Don't stop! Don't think!
Hurry on through, no age to blink.
There's no time to sit. To sit and to cry. 
To wander and blunder asking, why?
Tragic. You've missed the next point in 
turn.
Miss anymore and you cannot return.

Bipolar Trophy

There was no denying
I thought I was flying
Sadness was dying 
Excitement was building up.
I had reached a peak
There was no more to seek
As the winner of life's world cup.

The runway was clear
In crept the fear
A ripple in the water
A grumble underground
The title was slipping away
I looked around
Noone was found 
The wind blew 
all went askew
I was back up on trial
It was too hard to smile

Block by block the grief rebuilt
Covered by a thick dark quilt
Upside down peaks 
lead to millions of leaks 
The tears poured down 
From the glorious crown.

Living the Life

The thoughts,
Outweigh the actions.
Broken down,
Becoming fractions
of what they are
But i must put on the facade,
Chancing being betrayed.
Dancing in a freak show

Gone

Depth, deep
     low
below
Nothing to grasp
  slipping
     down
low
Not a gleam,
 the world is 
Dirty and Unclean

Demons

Never stop to really listen. 
You won't like what you hear
When those demons settle in
Your life is filled with fear. 
You stretch and crawl -
Drag your bones,
They pick and poke
What you thought was your own.
The damage severe 
You've already paid
It's now in your head 
Foundations layed.
Happiness comes -
It's not quite the same.
You let them in
And you're to blame.

Ocd

Release 
Relief
  Shame
Pain
Thoughts unclear
Which way to steer?
         Escape
Wait.
Release
Relief

A Poem While Your Waiting

A Poem 
Lost or found
Make no sound
Ear to the ground
Crisp and thin 
Or heartfelt soft 
A waterfall of words
Tumbling from the sky
Clouds spinning by
Grasp the sense 
Or lose the bait
The poem as always
The authors trait.

The Cycle

Life, laughter-all is well!
...what was the point in all that hell?
Let's change the subject,
I dont wanna think
About kicking up 
That Big Stink
I'm happy, that's now!
It's all that matters,
because it wont be long,
Before all of this shatters.
The world quickly turns 
Brightness into black
Here we go again, 
It's all coming back

Bitter Sweet

Twinkle, twinkle, shining star,
It's so unfair,
You've come so far.
Your legacy
It lives so long,
Where will i be?
when I'm gone
Shining Bright
-a solid tone
All up front;
Feelings shown.
With such glory 
No need to hide
Why this quality,
am i denied?
No answers to give, 
No ending to get 
An eternal dream;
Your beauty
My fret
