life is exciting
like a pendulum swinging
with no in-between
always on the go
with not a moment of rest
when she's on her high
then she hits her lows
and everything go downhill
ah, time for her pill
And all seems well now
but like sands through the hourglass
the cycle begins...
a tragic Blessing
paired with a Beautiful curse
she is Bipolar

I hope you feel better. And, I get the swinging pendulum reference.

If you're really interested in the book reviews, let me know and I'll give you the reps email addy. You can ask her if you're able to participate. I don't think it matters where you are as long as you have a blog.
Thanks for the lovely post. I can surely identify with that too :)
Mariposa,
Very nicely written and expressive of my feelings as well!

Very good Haiku. I guessed bi-polar before I got to the end.
