Being mentally ill and dating
Can be a catastrophe
Even if you were meant to be
My highs and lows
The hot and colds
I love hard and I love fast
But when I get lost,
Lost in my tornado mind
It doesn’t last
My actions won’t reflect my love
It’s there, I promise
I just make mistakes
My medications don’t always work
They need adjusting
Suicidal at times
But the next day I’m fine
I emotionally drain those around me
I sometimes use and abuse others
I’m not trying to be malicious
But my actions say otherwise
It’s just when you're lost for so long
It’s hard to feel human again
It’s hard to feel at all
