Bipolar
I'm so frantic that I'm manic,
Can't think rationally or clear.
Anger identifies with tragedy,
Enemies are from peer to peer.
I get angry in a sudden instant,
All my thoughts collide together,
Unable to collect or control myself,
The line between ire & joy sever.
In my world it's difficult to maintain,
Shrinks want to give me pills and tests.
My friends never stay friends for long,
It's because my anger never ever rests.
It's not my fault but it might as well be,
I can't contain my anger to strangers,
When they're...
Can't think rationally or clear.

Moonlight drive
I couldn't sleep last night so I went out for a little drive,
With no destination in mind I drove into the moonlight.
The wind came through the windows like a hurricane,
The more I drove the more I wanted you with me in life..
The road twisted and turned before me in a sudden flash,
The more I thought about you the more faster I had went.
Tears welled up inside my eyes when I realized something,
When I said that I loved you,i meant it deeply,truly to no end.
I glanced towards the sky and seen the horizon turning red,
The morning dew glistened...
With no destination in mind I drove into the moonlight.
The wind came through the windows like a hurricane,
The more I drove the more I wanted you with me in life..
The road twisted and turned before me in a sudden flash,
The more I thought about you the more faster I had went.
Tears welled up inside my eyes when I realized something,
When I said that I loved you,i meant it deeply,truly to no end.
I glanced towards the sky and seen the horizon turning red,

Self realization
Lost in this land of confusion,
Trying to make sense of it all.
Can't stop the drugs I'm using,
Behind every door there's a wall.
There's so much pain that I feel,
The kind that kills you off slowly,
Everything seems so out of keel,
Laying here in the dark I'm lonely.
I hide from the world out of shame,
Embarrassed of the fool I've become,
The thing is that I'm the one to blame,
For all this insanity I've succumbed.
I don't know who would help me now,
I've burned and wore down all bridges.
It's fair to say I've thrown in...
Trying to make sense of it all.
Can't stop the drugs I'm using,
Behind every door there's a wall.
There's so much pain that I feel,
The kind that kills you off slowly,
Everything seems so out of keel,
Laying here in the dark I'm lonely.
I hide from the world out of shame,
Embarrassed of the fool I've become,
The thing is that I'm the one to blame,
For all this insanity I've succumbed.
I don't know who would help me now,
I've burned and wore down all bridges.

Emotional Madness
I often find myself wandering along,
Alone and confused without direction.
Staring out into a world gone wrong,
With an empty heart void of affection.
My world crumbles and I fall to my knees,
I fall broken upon shattered pieces of life.
Resigned from dead end goals and dreams,
That I couldn't ever reach or make truly right.
I'm sad,angry,and Full of pain and anguish,
Running from mistakes that hunt me down.
Hidden inside an empty emotional madness ,
I might as well be dead and in the ground.
I once had it all but what I had...
Alone and confused without direction.
Staring out into a world gone wrong,
With an empty heart void of affection.
My world crumbles and I fall to my knees,
I fall broken upon shattered pieces of life.
Resigned from dead end goals and dreams,
That I couldn't ever reach or make truly right.
I'm sad,angry,and Full of pain and anguish,
Running from mistakes that hunt me down.
Hidden inside an empty emotional madness ,
I might as well be dead and in the ground.

Love restrained
I think about her every second of every minute,
I run away from my life but I refuse to let her go.
She's the one woman in my life that I truly love,
I can't be with her so I'd rather be 6 feet below.
I still remember her sweet voice on the telephone,
The way she had made me laugh was with ease,
For the first time in my life I finally felt pure love,
When she came into my life I finally felt complete..
I love you more than you will ever know,
I love you Stefii......
I will always love you,
Even if it has to be from 6ft.below....
I run away from my life but I refuse to let her go.

A Lone Stranger
Sometimes people enter our lives for reasons unknown,
Maybe to tell you thank you or even stop you to say hello.
It could be when we're feeling lost,confused,or depressed,
That one person comes along with joy to replace the stress.
Some situations are more harder and emotions are unstable,
We get used to the struggles so that our life becomes disabled.
When everything feels like it couldn't get more or less worse,
A lone stranger comes along to magically take away the curse.
We could be at our absolute most lowest point just barely alive,...

Remnants of Happiness
I've been broken and fixed,hurt and love sick,
All the things that have kept me down so low,
In life I've made mistakes that made me loathe,
The man I've become with his remorseful woe.
Battles were a constant burden of his own demise,
Forced to fight between what was good and bad,
Sometimes he picked up the pieces of the aftermath,
Or he resigned to his life of unhappy endings perhaps.
Sometimes things happen without reason or answers,
Unaccustomed to question the meanings that hide,
Maybe it's because he feels like he lived just to die,...

Disguises of Misery
Another sad day with another sad thought,
Guess that explains why I'm this distraught.
With more time to kill than I'd like to admitt,
I'm all alone in life and don't understand it.
Sometimes when the pain comes it blazes,
I hide deep inside myself lost within mazes.
Thoughts so painful that they twist and turn,
Inside i scream as I let the memories burn.
Nobody seems to understand my life ordeals,
They say they do but can't tell me how it feels.
I hide behind a facade out of fear and anger,
Towards myself for all the good once wagered....

I am nothing.
Feeling lonely,
Feeling used,
There's nothing left in life.
Betrayed by family,
Betrayed by friends,
Why must I live this lie?
Emotions dulling,
Emotions pulling,
Suicide never felt more right.
Sick with anger,
Sick with dread,
God's not here to shine his light.
