MY MANIC MIND
Poetry

(last updated 3/08/04)

My poems displayed on this site are all unpolished, by this I mean I haven't rewritten or altered them in any way.
They come into my head during extreme mood swings and I write them down straight away.

This is my self-therapy, once the words are out of my head I try to just leave my thoughts at that.

Hope you enjoy! Please remember that my poems reflect my thoughts at the time of writing, when my mood swings are severe. Its my way of attempting to help you understand from my side.

Poem: When I Meet Another Manic Bipolar (true story included at beginning of poem)
Rating: Good
Comments: this captures the feeling really well, or at least the one i get when both me and a friend are in a manic phase. it's excellent, we bounce ideas off of each other at a tremendous rate. the energy is there, and the frustration i get with the rest of the world being so damn slow isn't. it feels soooo good, but does have a habit of pushing us both to a higher level (which is not always so good). i love this poem, i love the others too, but this one resonates more at the moment after having just come down off a high

Poem: Leaving (About when my time comes)

Poem: It is not my intention (poetic reply to a letter)
Rating: Excellent
Comments: I think unless you've experienced something it is impossible to imagine what you are going through! Almost more than that, i have only just realised that other people don't think like me, they see things differently! It was a bit of a shock, I had suspected it but believed it was something to do with me, then recently I had the notion, no, maybe it's something missing in them. Lesley (survivor)
