Sometimes I feel magnificent. I feel like I’m unstoppable, a force to be reckoned with. My actions aren’t well thought through, with suicide attempts on impulse. I’m running off of a few hours of sleep, and I feel like nothing can knock me down. I love myself, and I love the world. But then comes the lows. I can’t get out of my bed, and my pillowcases are stained with blood, mascara, and tears. I claim I’ve never felt this awful, which I’ve said the last five times this happened. I sleep for too long, and I feel inferior. I hate myself, and I hate the world. Now I write my notes, apologies for hurting everyone. And then the good comes again, but I only wait for this ******* cycle to repeat again.
