Bimyself Bisuffering.

I have bi polar I find many people find it difficult to really understand how it effects people, it also seems to have a lot of misunderstanding in society. This was my inspiration for this poem.

————

Sometimes it seems that no one understands

No one seems to see how I suffer all alone

My mind is different, my mind is unique

My mind always seems to know when to show how different I am

Standing in a room, trying to socialise

All of a sudden I feel a pain there is anxiety again

Off I run to be alone to suffer alone

There are the days that I am so happy nothing could bring me down

No storm, no bad news, no sickness could stop this mood

Then in an instant it all ends & the darkness is back to claim its lair

It’s hard to manage a mind like mine

At times it seems all too much

The highs, the lows, the in between, the anxiety the persists,

The fickle nature of it all

I remind myself I am not alone, there are many bisuffering, bialone.
