Mania feels good when it battles the sadness, gives me the strength to get off of this mattress
My hair gets a wash and my make up gets done, I can giggle and laugh and look forward to fun
What project to do? How can I change my room? Maybe I'll cut my hair or get a new tattoo
Shopping! That'll be fun, need some new outfits to wear in the sun, or even the moon
I'm feeling manic I won't be sleeping anytime soon
Wait now- slow down
I need to process
I need to feel these feelings, not go on a distracting side quest
But my thoughts are poems and my legs are restless
Maybe one distraction won't hurt, maybe it'll pull me out of this mess
I'm spewing out words,
I can't help it I'm sorry
Its worse than the birds
At five o'clock in the morning
