Rage (in bipolar disorder)

Maire Payan

Rip tear bite scratch shred
Skin you alive
Sever myself from myself
I don”t see you coming
But I feel your presence.
Like a suicide bomber I want to explode,
Taking you with me.
Everything is raw, red
Emotions raging like a swollen river
After a storm.
I want to bash your head in.
Or kill you slowly
With deliberation.
I need a cure
Resolution.
All atempts fail
There is no magic
No pill
To quell this raging madness
