Beautiful Sin
BipolarBear Oct 2024
His face holds no flaw, his smile stops time.
His words paint a future in this willing mind.
He must be an angel of the Lord's design.
Yet, religion divides - it bars me from him.
How, Lord, is it possible? That he is a sin?

NEW HEAPHONES
BipolarBear Dec 2024
How I wish that I could describe,
how I feel when that music strikes.
Tickling all my senses inside.
Passion warms me as it ignites.

Tunes by my side, clock strikes midnight.
Boosted through miles - I run, I ride.
Heartache, love and peace coincide.
Music narrates my opaque life.

I want to fly, I want to dive.
I want to live and feel alive.
For once I lack the wish to die.
My heart, my soul, my feelings revive.
Any 'Fred again...' fans?

Contemplations
BipolarBear Nov 2024
As I walk in the thirty degree heat.
Questions that haunt me, begin to repeat.
In the summer air, however, a breeze.
Air flows wistfully, calming me with ease.

Overthinkers can lose their lives in daydream.
Something grabs ahold of mine to save me.
I get the urge to recover self esteem.
My heart, soul and so relationships redeem.

Lord, I lost you and myself soon followed.
I have gone too long, a woman hollowed.
Now the way to you is clear but winding.
Continue to shine your light so blinding.

You are patient Lord, guide each of my feet.
When I step offtrack, help me not repeat.
Focusing on you, all questions answered.
Please take them all, I look not backward.

Love, Ever Alien
BipolarBear Jan 13
I never understood love songs.
Not until you, dear, came along.
But now we are strangers again,
my own words feel hollow and spent.
Looking back on my old poetry, they are foreign

Let it out slowly
BipolarBear Oct 2024
Put ink to pen
and pen to paper,
the words and stories
will come later.

Never allowing
the water-flow out,
will end in damage,
destruction and drought.

Obsession
BipolarBear Jan 13
"You're still obsessed" said my best friend.
I was not even his girlfriend.
We went on one date, one weekend.
Yet no other seems to contend.
That magic night came to an end.
I gained no love, but lost a friend.
Our close bond will never amend.
That promising road a dead end.
Unheeding potential to offend,
I sprinted blind around the bend.
That naive girl, I won't defend.
A wiser woman must transcend.

Neurotic Black Hole
BipolarBear Jan 8
Negative emotions,
always so much stronger.
Positive ones never
stay to linger longer.

For a heart can be filled
to the brim with delight.
While one can live dying
ever deeper inside.

Trustfall
BipolarBear Oct 2024
Never at all  
did I understand love songs before.

To 'do anything' for a smile,
simply couldn't be true.
Until you grinned,
and I looked at you.

Never at all  
did I understand marriage before.

To give up oneself,
your ambitions and goals.
Do it all for your family
and unite your souls.

It perplexed me how
they knew it would work.
Until one look at you.
Then my love, I learnt.

Dear friend
BipolarBear Oct 2024
Dear friend,
from my past

Do not harbour those
bitter feelings please.  
We loved and we lost.
I needed you - you,
me - thus our paths crossed.

Don't grieve this chapter
spent with eachother.
You will always be
with me, and me you,
we carved the other.

I wish you the best.
May you grow, prosper,
love and all the rest.
I'm on my 4th highschool due to moving around a bunch. Countless friendships have formed and ruptured. When we are young we think that our best friends will be around forever, unfortunately this is not the case.

Corkscrew spin
BipolarBear Oct 2024
A shiny forehead;
accelerating pulse.

I'm anxious to win;
yet thoughts escape me,
like smoke in the wind.

I lost hold of my-
self, clutching onto
this pen in my hand.

Always, I feel it
escalate - defeat:
my sinking sand.

— The End —
