I don’t really write poetry, I haven’t had lessons in it since I was at school. But last night i was awake at 3 am and I jotted down my thoughts in the notes section of my phone. This morning I shuffled them around a bit and this is the result…..

Hypomania

Awake in the night

Thoughts keep coming in neon lights

No need for sleep no use for food

Energy is endless

High on my mood.

Reaching new heights

The future looks bright

How long can this last?

Plans to make

Ideas multiply thick and fast.

Look at me here

I don’t feel any fear

Happiness radiates

Music is talking 

Chest is alive and heart pulsates.

Facts to devour

Nuclear power

Quicksilver mood

Dress is bold

Pure gold taking hold

Say ‘It’s enough’

Keep myself grounded

Tied to my roots

Routine is important

Emotions are loud

Roars in my ears

Adrenaline surges

Cortisol flows

Can’t feel my fingers

Skin is fizzing

Feet on the ground

Head in the clouds.

Feel love more than before

Phone, text, it’s good to talk

Keep running forever

Feet tap out a walk

Helter skelter

Fairground attraction

Fireworks and atmosphere

All the bright stars

Meteor shower

Awake at three

Write thoughts day and night

The rides

The tides

Hold on tight

Birdsong is louder

Goodbye inhibitions

Talk to a stranger

New ambitions

Make everything right

Thinking of others

Ideas taking flight

Get up and go

Everythings easier

Plans multiplying

A tap I can’t stop

Happiness ending

Wave arms about

It ends with a crash

Flight aborted

Over and out.
