Premium Member journey into a bipolar mind
journey into a bipolar mind pebbles in time . there were ripples in yesterday’s water where stones once were tossed . pebbles really, yet enough to form concentric wrinkles soothing over rough edges and drowning silly circus clowns . each circle died and glass-like waters were again still undisturbed as though he had not been there . perhaps he hadn’t . in his head circles rolled onto circles and the pale painted...

lost my friend to Bipolar
JY and I met through a mutual friend in 1991. We strucked a deal with a handsome transaction, In which we both were in a win-win situation. Since then, we became close friends, Every week, she travelled a long way to see me, Made big efforts bringing sample of deserts. Which she made and delivered to many shops, Displayed closed to the...

I am a purple prisoner of poetry For when I can’t write woe is me Darkens my sky the flowetry Enriches my life the soul of me Some do drugs roll with me I just do hugs go with me Grasping the love of a sheet Of paper, pen and ink is peace Muse is a turquoise tool guides me Ideas are precious jewels...

Premium Member Pink Slips and Bipolar Vending Machines
My supervisor is a young, soft spoken Asian gal... Who averted my eyes as she handed me my end of the year "compensation award statement". For working weekends and holidays being an absentee on birthdays and funerals (thank God). Despite the company riding the gilded air currents like a diamond studded albatross, I'll get seventy-three cents an hour raise. I met her eyes...

Bipolar
In shadows deep where silence dwells,?Three tiny hearts weave whispered spells,?They dance in dreams with eyes of light,?Unaware of the encroaching night. A father’s laughter, a guiding hand,?Now echoes faint like steps on sand,?Bipolar’s grasp, a stormy tide,?Tore through their world, their gentle guide. He wore his smile like a fragile mask,?And fought the demons,...

Patient wait, I fight my fate
why cant i disconnect when i stop having fun, leave this server and find a new one, I know we never ask to play, but still im begging anyway, I’m sick and tired of this game, and struggle hiding my disdain, for still having to entertain, these words inscribed inside my brain, written red, its better than the awful things i’d do instead, so here...

Sleep escaped, Without a farewell, She had not the grace To aspire my light, She proved to be darker Than her gaze, Glaring, glowering, Glowing with madness, Bipolar’s destroyer – two sides of the coin Despair, dread, doubt – depression Delight, elation, wired – manic Stages of dark and light, Day and night, A breath, a prayer, a silence Flooded with fire – Cold, brilliant desire…. Where she kindles a flame, A...

Bipolar
There was a day when my brain turned against me thirsting for daily dose of medication. My thoughts grew dim and every day more cloudy as if in fear of some intimidation. I fought against growing sense of agony words eluding my desired ambition. But the day came when the lights came back on Words spewing forth in an unending ribbon....

There Is An Angel Who Sits Upon My Shoulder Who Goes By The Name Of Death
There is an angel who sits upon my shoulder who goes by the name of Death, And though I cannot always see him, upon my neck I can always feel his breath As he whispers to me relentlessly, deftly using my soul’s own Shibboleth. He is my phantasmagorical companion from which there has thus far been no escape, One...

To You, With Love, From Me Please know I too have felt there is nothing left, been afraid, and out of hope. Please know I too have felt there is nothing left and did not know if I could cope. Please know that I too have felt alone and watched my strength drift beyond my view. Please know...
