Being Bi-polar
I’ve always known something wasn’t quite right
…I felt it from the start
It’s not something that would be present every day
But I felt it in my heart
Despite being very intelligent
Most things seemed out of reach
But the illness became more prevalent as an adult
And so too were the lessons it would teach
I once had a wife and child
…A family of my own
Then one day I woke up from a nightmare
And everything was gone
I once met the girl of my dreams
With a smile so bright and a heart of gold
But I pushed her and pushed her away
Until all she could do is fold
As I struggle to rebuild my life
I ponder this illnesses’ high cost
For each and every day is a reminder
Of everything I’ve lost
