Bipolar Oh ! Bipolar

Bipolar Oh ! bipolar
They called me bipolar
I am up in the heaven for one day
Next day I am down in the hell

No middle ground for me
No life on earth for me
I am the happiest human being for a minuite
I am the most miserable creature next moment

My moods changed as fast as a supersonic flight
I can't predict my own behavior
Everyone asked me why am I doing so?
Nobody can depend on me and so am I 

How can I be normal like others ? 
I don't want to be just laughing at a time
And I don't want to be just crying at another time
I want to have both in my life when it is needed

I don't want to have a great sence of belonging one time
And a terrible loneliness next moment
I want to have a tranquility of mind
I also need courage to face what life offers me

I want to be loved by someone 
And hated by someone else
I want both these feelings at the same time
Then I can be happy and sad at same time

To be or not to be...Bipolar!!! It's not a choice. Sorry to hear of your pain. Hey, here's an idea. When you're happy make a list of things you love to do. When your down, GET UP and make yourself do something on your happy list...with or without anyone else. OR WRITE, WRITE, WRITE. God bless you.

Thank you my Friends. Your comments are very precious for me. It gives me motivation to write again. I work in this field and I feel the pain the clients are going through. I also met very talented and good people. But they are sick and suffering. I am a strong believer of God and that is my strength to go forward when struggles bothers me. Kindly read my other songs and comment on them too. Kindly watch my videos in youtube. username is babjos.
