Bipolar Depression

Post by Hbarone »

Cotton Candy Painted Sky

What did I do
What did I say
Who did I hurt
To deserve this pain

I never dreamed that life
As beautiful as it had been
Could leave me so sad
And broken as I am

I can't just make it stop
The tears just won't go away
I asked God to take me home
But I know that I must stay

I have so much to live for
But it's not easy to persuade
The little bipolar demon
That resides in my snarled brain

Staring up
At a beautiful sky
Which was once
A pleasure of mine

But now I look up and I cry
Not even a cotton candy painted sky
Could make me feel alive

What did I do
What did I say
Who did I hurt
To deserve this pain

Written on one of my worst days with bipolar depression. I went for a drive to see if the sunset would bring a smile to my face and instead I wrote this. It did make me feel better.

I'm sharing this very personal poem in hopes to help anyone dealing with bipolar or depression. Know that you are not alone. Also to give people an idea of what it's like.

I'm so blessed to have people who love me. Especially my kids and my husband. XOXO
