Title: trying to cope
Date Submitted: 1/23/2006

 
Poem: I'm here fighting the bipolar on my own
It's hard to keep going when you're all alone
If only someone knew the darkness I feel
I know that bipolar can never heal

I’m stuck with it for the rest of my life
Depression is painful, a stabbing knife
people ignore it but they don't know
Why I'm left lifeless when my energy goes

They think I’m hopeless and lazy when down
Surely they see I’m not happy and frown
Sometimes I need comfort and some kind of hope
So I can battle on, then maybe I’ll cope!
