Up Down

A poem about moods, the ups and the downs.

Up Down

Up, down and all around.
Mind soaring, thoughts crazy.
Must do something.
Can’t concentrate; Too much to do
Clean the house; organize.
Everything in its place.
Can’t sleep, don’t eat.
Have to shop, buy and spend
Everything’s good, great, couldn’t be better

Mind numb, thoughts distressing
Nothing needs to be done.
Can’t concentrate, it’s just not worth it.
Sit in the chair, garbage on the floor.
Everything in disorder.
Must sleep, must eat
Can’t go, so alone
Nothing’s good, or great, couldn’t be worse.
