I can be so high that
I dance instead of walk
So low that I sleep
Instead of talk.

I can be so manic
That I take so many medication
That I do not know my own mother.
I can be so depressed
That I feel I have nothing
To share with others.

Who I am has many answers
It depends on where I am
In my balance

I love being stabile
But to be completely honest,
I like better to be
A little manic, than
To be a little depressed.
Hypomania can be fun, but dangerous.

I am scared sometimes, when I am stable
and laugh and dance that I begin to
Become manic. It is difficult and sad,
Because I have the right To have fun, I too.
