Bipolar Companion

I’m better altered
Attitude and mood
I want a companion
Not angered, or rude

A bipolar manner
Leaves me perplexed
I plead for a canter
And knowing what’s next

Just a steady stride
Repeating beat
A healthy supply
To quench my need

It boosts my mood
It soothes my pain
It’s different with you
You’re never the same

I try and I try
Combative, I’m not
I smile and comply
My very best shot

You poke and prod
Killing my high
Seeing through my facade
As, I’m not one to lie

By now, it’s too late
You sensed my dismay
So I’ll take the bait
Just like yesterday
