    On Being Bi-Polar what you actually see.

    Bi-Polar

    Wake to a bright new sunshine

    Flowers blooming, birds chirping

    The suns’ ray beaming darkly on the pavement

     

    Pool water breathlessly awaiting hot bodies

    cooled in its depths, kids playing

    The green grass grows, patches of dirt, seeping through

     

    The sun is shining yet,

    The darkness has swallowed me whole

    Utopian bliss shattered. Is this a personal demon or are you including the poor souls who live in the agony of not knowing they don't know? I guess the darkness makes us unable to see if there is really anyone there or knowing how many there might be. I liked how the ending just suddenly happens, like a bipolar episode. You never know when it is going to happen and then it suddenly does.
