Where is my Winter of Discontent ?
Written by "Alastair Bruce"- (Bipolar Disorder without depression)

I learn of this deep dark winter
Terrifying their fragile minds
Paralyzing the body into reclusive submission

My darkness is short lived
A rainy afternoon, a cold morning
But once again I am on my journey

My summer is colourful and shines bright
Laden with wild and manic gestures
My consciousness collides with its heroic foe

Dreams come true, intuitions miraculously flourish
An ultra-rapid cycler with no borders
No fear exists, only understood
Numbers and reasons make visual sense
Ecstasy reins through my inflated veins
A Child is saved, animals speak and listen
Love exists in its purest red lustful form
Serenity lies beneath like the calm sea
My white pure light indicates to others
That I am above it all, and they approach
With anticipation and awe….yes I am!!

Am I ?…. don't circularize this space
Go with it, don't question, react, hurry
For questions mean YOU don't understand
For I WILL go alone and lose my mind once again
This Fear alone is real, am I GOD or not?
Is the answer love, A or Z, me or you, I or A
A is the answer, Alastair, A the mighty one.
Oh but no, love is and once you do, you too will love
And learn to deal with this profound beautiful insanity
called life…....
