    Poem Commentary

    I am bipolar and this is a description of how my day is ALL the time!!!

    WAVES

    Left, Right, Front, Back

    Nothing but still waters do I see.

    I sail for miles and not a bump.

    WOOSH!!

    My boat is flooded with a wave.

    I'm picked up and moved across the waters

    at a speed to fast to measure.

    The wind blows cool across my face,

    my sails are as open as

    a loving mothers arms.

    DROP.

    I fall hard and fast to the sea.

    What happened to the wave?

    It was here

    now it's gone.

    No sighn, no sound, not even a

    bump.

    Left, Right, Front, Back

    Nothing but still waters do I see.

    I sail for miles and not a bump.

    HOLD ON!!

    I am lifted up high,

    then droped so low.

    Rocking and clashing with

    the waves below.

    I'm losing control,

    I don't know what to do.

    I cry out

    HELP!

    but a reply is unheard.

    I rock and I clash.

    I'm lifted and droped.

     As quick as

    it came, it's now but a

    MEMORY.

    Left, Right, Front, Back

    Nothing but still waters do I see.

    I sail for miles and not a bump.

    BOOM!!

    I'm lifted up high and

    sped down the sea.

    I'm rocked and i'm clashed

    as rough as can be.

    I'm lifted then droped

    lifted then droped.

    I try to hold on

    but my grip is getting thin.

    I am being rocked so violently

    that I'm sure I'll give in.

    CLOSER and CLOSER,

    HIGHER and HIGHER.

    I'm at the edge

    I'm losing my grip.

    SPLASH!!

    The waves are gone.

    No more rocking,

    no more clasing

    no more ups, or downs.

    No more fast paced

    at the seat of your paints

    adrinaline that rushes through

    my veins.

    NOTHING.

    Left, Right, Front, Back

    Nothing but still waters do I see.

    I sail for miles and not a bump.

    ... at a speed too fast to measure - that line hit me. I cannot even imagine how to get through a day like this. You have opened some eyes with this most personal and enlightening write. I am so pleased you have shared these words. Quite powerful. Thank you. ~Pamela

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.
