Welcome To My Own Personal Hell

In the mind of a bipolar.

Welcome

To my own personal hell

Alone in my darkness

Where I sit and dwell

 

Fighting in a battle

A lifetime chore

In the realms of my mind

I am wishing for more

 

Suicidal tendencies

In the closet of my mind

My demons scream

In my head, they grind

 

The sun fights the moon

For what the day may bring

As I keep holding on

To my life, by a string

 

Insanity takes a toll

As I kick and scream

Hiding behind a smile

While I lay awake and dream

 

Living in a fantasy

Hiding from the real

Trying to keep what I hold inside

Wishing I couldn't feel

 

Words in my head

Save me from my mind

The only thing saving me

And healing me with time

 

With the breath of a muse

Inside my soul

Always there to catch me

When I'm spiraling out of control

Welcome

To my own personal hell

I'll be here for awhile

To sit and dwell

"Insanity takes a toll
As I kick and scream
Hiding behind a smile
While I lay awake and dream"
I loved this stanza especially. It is very true in all cases, and I think that most people can relate to what you are saying. This entire piece is very well written. I enjoyed it very much.

Very well written. The imagery is great in this piece. The flow and rhythm are perfect. Wonderfully penned about a subject most people don't understand. Great job.

This poem is great. I like the flow and the rhyme scheme. I like the content too because it takes the reader with them.
