Ummm not that I'm complaining because I'd like to have this thread...

But wasn't a previous one (or two?) moved to the Creative Corner??

Pardon my prose here; I wasn't coming up with a poetic way to say this:

After further discussion, we decided to try letting the Bipolar forum have a poetry thread of its own.
Thanks for this!

Yay!!! Thanks mods and admins!!

To celebrate: a poem I wrote when I was probably 17.

From High to Low

Flying high, oh so high,
Glancing at the lives below.
Flying high, oh so high,
Wondering where my life will go.

Thinking fast, oh so fast,
Thoughts rushing through my head.
Thinking fast, oh so fast,
Some are wishing I was dead.

Falling hard, oh so hard,
The landing breaks my heart.
Falling hard, oh so hard,
I don't know where to start.

Breaking down, oh so down,
I curl up in a ball.
Breaking down, oh so down,
Why am I so small.

Lying still, oh so still,
Never wanting to arise.
Lying still, oh so still,
Vain are all my tries.

-----------------------
I found a bunch of my poems from highschool saved in my livejournal. Can really see through them that even THEN I was in fact dealing with these shenanigans.... hahaha.

I was fun - I was the sun!
And the moon too, so sure I'd won
So nice to bask in free and light
The real me it is on tonight
Any wish I'd like falls from the sky
The real She don't mess I bite
I surely win with any try
Dance & spin the star of all eyes
So fun So fun they love my smile
It will never end she got flow style
Where was that now?
You say I know you how?
Couldn't have been me
No, I usually sit by myself...

#1 eh? Well ok but someone here quoted Sylvia Plath and that blew me out of the water new verses wise. She has the F'n POWER. Anyway I will recover from losing the previous incarnation «Bipoetry» and return.

The bleakest winter of my life
Buried my only child in the frozen ground

April still came
I cried more than the spring rain
The trees still flowered and the grass turned green

My heart still frozen
It wasn't the same

The summer is passing
Soon the leaves will fall

My heart still frozen
It won't be the same

The joy, excitement of the winter holidays
Just another reminder of what was taken from me
My child, the greatest gift I ever received

My heart is frozen
It will never be the same

It was a clown
The dark kind
So foul and lurking
I knew he'd be there
Does he move or do I
It wasn't a panic
Was no new surprise
Jagged and spikey
Lacking soul eyes
My breath was my guide
Shadow illusion did fade
I check my body
Still here I'm ok
My breath became light
He stood by my sides
Golden and tall
My safety my guide
Swirling marble of secrets
He slowly revealed
The colors they swirled
You may fly up or stay here
He stood by me both sides
Patient and loving
The choice was mine
Making sure I'm still breathing
I decide to stay here
My breath as my anchor
So kind my protector
Lit up in gold
To find my own balance
Is my key that I hold.
Thanks for this!

Mourning

I will mourn with other mothers
Our candles raised in the dark night
Hoping beyond hope that our light

Will somehow bring you home
Knowing we only have each other
But in our hearts we are so alone

I know now my life changed forever
Will always be waves of pain and sorrow
Changing seasons filled with nevers and
All your lost tomorrow's

Beautiful Boy I'll always ask why you had to go
I hold my candle every night
Forever hoping that it's light

Will bring me to you
Where once again I'll hold you tight


Jason I love you beyond words, there are no words to describe this pain

Not sure if I should polish this some more, but here it goes:

Billowing waters,
snow falls golden and melts,
alight in the dawn.
