Filled

upon my emptiness I am filled 
a gentle spirit soaring about 
my manic mood swings 
I cater to soft scents 
hints of violet clusters covering 
the ongoing greenery of untimeliness 
I capture my melancholy madness gravely 
lost unprepared for thee upcoming storm 
of pure panic my breathing is subtle 
my cries are calm chuckles hidden beyond 
the sudden episode that releases unwanted 
energies my mind needs for sheer survival 
afterwards a coming melody heard far off 
within my emotional state and my positive 
mental attitude somehow arbitrated 
quietly between personalities I fold myself 
into a fetal position and weep so 
empting my wretched soul 
however filled with the holy spirit
