you must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

Some days I love you,
I gave you my heart.
Other days you break it,
and tear it apart.
My life was damn near perfect,
until you came around.
Your memory still haunts me,
and your voice is always found,
all the "no's" and "what-if's",
come rearing ugly heads.
you have my mind,
and you'll never let it go.
Mr. Blue welcome back,
I hope you like me well.
Because first you must destroy
me, your fragile poster child.

The author's comments:
I have been diagnosed with manic depression, or Bipolar. Mr. Blue refers to a depressed state. It's something that without medication I've learned to deal with, and that's what inspired this piece.
