"Manic Depressions In an Otherwise Relatively Stable Existence"
"Why?"
Was the question
So naive
So elusive
So abusive
Unanswered prayers or personal redemption
Slowly, sadness slithers
The pure emotion rollercoaster slides uncontrollably
So sure in it's direction to be embraced so wholly
In pain while the rain beats with tenacity
"Truth!"
Was the answer
So lucid
So concise
So precise
Elaborate reasons or Predestined contention
Rapidly, happiness prevails
Existence is as concise and pristene as truth can be so
Persistence to this existence succumbingly seems so
Sublime and in rhyme with the purveyors of veracityTears fall down the face with the ease of regret
No joy nor heartless pity can erase if course is set
And willful patience fulfill's the poet with his bet
