Spaceminded

I’ve drifted in space,

In endless, boundless darkness, 

Escaping the allure of evil. 

Where sound fades away, 

yet voices still whisper, 

Silent screams echoing in the cold solitude,

Invisible to all, no matter how present I am, 

Like a symphony played in reverse or a piece of art unnoticed, 

Where time seems to crawl in slow motion,

Adrift in a single, unchanging direct...

The 7 Valley

The Rollercoaster which we name Bipolar

Up swings
Low swings
Irritable swings
Whenever the bell rings.
Time to change so soon?
Oh thankyou for the gloom
Its not like I needed mental room
I'll just listen to your tune.
Is it time for bed,
Or are you not done yet?
This endless strain of thoughts
Feeling like I'm making a case In front of the courts
Barely awake, but barely conscious?
You'll wish you'd had your bedroom blessed
...
