i cry
and scream
whenever i come crashing down
from my high.
it’s the disorder-
the disease-
that pushes me
taunts me
backs me up into a corner
until one day
i’ll crash down
so hard
i’ll end up a corpse
because that’s exactly what my mind wants.
it’s fucking sick,
i hate the mocking
and the teetering off the edge
and i don’t know
if i’ll ever be able to reach that day
where i can give a big fuck you
to the demons that have been possessing my mind
and infecting my brain.
the demons will probably be the ones laughing
as they lower me into my grave

Good poem. I know where you are coming from. I was recently diagnosed with scitzo effective disorder and it explains why I keep doing what I’m doing. I was manic and I might be again since stress is a big trigger for me who knows.
