Manic Mode

 Irrational-

All these thoughts consume me

Overreacting;

I let my insecurities best me

High and low;

No middle ground-

I'm stuck in stasis

My chest constricts 

And my mind screams out loud;

Silence echoes round the room

My emotions shut down,

My face: unreadable 

Until the dam breaks-

One by one the tears roll down

My heart heavy;

And I'm shattered all over again

Your eyes alone-

Brings me back to reality

I'm easily lost amongst your kisses

All these dreams and all these fears

Wash away when I feel you near;

My heartbeat quickens

And my thoughts calm the waters

My face radiates a smile from ear-to-ear
