Definitely bipolar
The race of life
Its said that the nice guy finishes last. Well, some races ARE better finished LAST. LIFE, is a journey. LIFE, is an incredible experience we may only get once. DONT try and finish FIRST. The prize might not be what the effort was WORTH.

Aurora
Lightning strikes light up the sky,
Echoing thunder chases close behind.
As i gaze upon this vicious storm a childs figure is suddenly born.
A beautiful white dress drapes over pale white flesh.
Long black hair parts to reveal bleeding eyes,
I try to move though i am paralyzed.
She begins to speak to me in a language unknown.
I begin to respond,how. I dont know.
I cannot recall the words we said as i awake repeatedly screaming them in my bed.
I reassure myself its all in my head.
Though i am still disturbed by the sight of her presence, faded...

Bottoms up
Drink away the pain
It will all be over soon
It was a good run
It will all be over soon
It was a good run

Fearless
In the face of flames I am fearless
I can feel my hearts desires Burning inside
It is only near death I feel most alive
Choking for my last breathe I strive to survive
In the sights of danger Time seems ageless
Minutes feel like hours as just seconds go by
Adrenaline coursing through my veins
I DONT want to die
Theres an angel on my back
And a devil on my shoulder
Life's an open road
Its time to let it go
Playing Russian roulette With my life
How many chances will i get
The hammer strikes
*click

The cycles
Walls are closing in
Anxiety crippling me
Im so fucking sad
Helplessly in bed with dread
I wish i was fucking dead
Tormenting myself
Hurtful thoughts invade my head
Why am i alive
Why do i bother to fight
What is the point anymore
Falling to the floor
Laying helpless in demise
I contemplate life
Soft subtle cries come to end
I stand up and dry the tears
Breathing now normal
Somehow i have calmed myself
A shift in my mood
I prefer the happiness
But for how long will it last

There is still in HOPE in hopeless
Life is a struggle
Success is worth fighting for
Dont ever give up

Dont ever give up

Make a difference
A fortunately privileged white capitalist who loves to contradict,
Who loves to complain about anything he sees fit.
You see the problem with capitalism is it makes life too easy,
It removes the fight and allows us to become fat and lazy.
Capitalism is like mother and father both at the same time,
One day your worth a dollar the next not even a dime.
Get off your fucking ass you lazy human being,
Quit bitching about everything and start diplomatically disagreeing
You are no coward and that is for sure,
You show more bravery then most and fight for...

Manic observation
Verbal excretion,
Words with no weight to them now.
Rise to the surface.
I miss being innocent,
Now i am narcissistic.
Two bottles of wine,
Twelve fluid ounces of vodka,
Subconsciously drunk.
You can blame me if you want,
Regardless i feel no shame.
How can anyone,
Survive on four hours of sleep?
I must be manic.
I can feel everything.
A problem within my brain.
I am not that bad.
Or maybe i am that bad.
Depends on the day.
On some days i am the sun,

The show always plays
My moods shift and change by the day
change by the hour and from the things you may say
A multi coloured flower in a garden of grey
One minute i flourish the next i decay
On a day so bright
my petals gloom
But by the night
they surely may bloom
My moods shift and change by the day
Change by the hour and from the things you may say
To some considered bipolar
To myself considered engaged
Life is a rollercoaster
Maybe i am too brave
As i am getting older
And Wiser with age
Ive realized Life is of its beholder ...

Alive and well
Inside a frozen heart
A fire burns
Its Tomb of Ice beginning to melt
Internal summer returns
Evaporating its final layer
Revealing frostbitten flesh
Beating and bleeding black
Strong smells of decay and death
Surprisingly a change
Colour starting to exchange
Beating and bleeding profusely
Restoring to a thing of beauty
Inner chambers clearing out toxins
Noxious smells of rotten
The surface glowing red
Pulsating with passion
What once seemed dead
Appears alive with action
Life has been restored ...
