Why Can't You Just Be Happy?

[davidp29]

Besides fighting with my dad, the last week was amazing...write about it later. Here's a poem I just wrote..never seem to have the time I want to spend on them, they all come out rushed. "Anyways" here it is. Appreciate those who read.

Bipolar Love
You are gentle like a light mist on a midsummer’s night
Smoothly, delicately, and invisibly surrounding the body with your heavenly love
You are like the golden glow of the flame of an eternal candle
Warm, solacing, and everlasting
You are graceful like a wave breaking on the shoreline
Perfect in form and so tranquil
You are a possibility worth taking
Where everything is worth sacrificing
You are like the brightest star in the sky
Consistently beautiful yet always out of reach
You are tempting like the most dangerous drug
Horribly addictive and never satisfying the first high
You are inconsistent and often volatile
Much like the sun on the gloomiest and cloudiest of days
You are a beautiful letdown
Much like a meteor shower drowned out by the wasteful city lights
Your love is devastating and overwhelmingly difficult
Like an old candle flickering from the wrath of a potent wind, surviving, but just barely
Your lies are like a hurricane hurtfullness
Striking fast but ever so effectively
You are hurtful like the sharp edge of a knife
Your words slice through my pride and hope so easy its dispiriting
You are my heaven
You are my hell
You are my bittersweet love
You are my downfall
You keep me above the surface of water
Yet you always bring me under just for a taste of death..
