Poem: i'm manic again, it feels great
if i sleep at all it's not til late
finally darkness has gone away
leaving a rainbow for today
if only i stayed this way
happiness would be here to stay
i open the blinds that have been shut
living in darkness, stuck in a rut
sadness has gone i feel so free
like a rainbow is shining on me
i don't know how long the mania will last
i'm crazy and reckless and drive way to fast
how long will this go on? nobody knows
but i'l miss it when it finally goes
for a long time i was wrapped in a chain
i find it so hard to live with my brain
and frequently feel i'm going insane
i dread the depression that will come again
