Poem: Planes, birds, clouds, Oh how they soar so high.
And if you catch me on an off day,
You'd realise so do I.
Yeah! I take tablets, For my disease
But most times the Bipolar does whatever it pleases
When I'm high in my world it's so hard to come down
And when I'm like that people don't want me around
They say they can't take it but, hey, neither can I.
Who wants to be dangerously low
Or even intoxicatingly high?
That's the trouble with Bipolar and it's symptoms that swing
Sometimes people tell you you did stuff and you can't remember a thing
When you're high you can do all regardless of the consequences
And when you're perilously low you think to yourself suicide will end this
So to those with a mental illness, I understand a little of how you feel
But remember Satan is a liar, God's love for you is so real
So hold on to Jesus, For He'll keep you now as He kept you then
For He's not only your Saviour, But your dearest best friend....
