'B P D' Disordered thinking!

'B P D' Disordered thinking!

In realms of stable mentalityΒ 
a mind differs from the crowd
moods split and bounce to extremes
and inner pain becomes too loud

Yearning for social interaction
and unconditional care of a lover
while abnormal Β behaviour and instability
Lays a 'to happen?' no way" cover

From a vacuum of numb emptinessΒ 
comes a need to feel something
a physical cut and blood to spill
so to reality back to bring

On a island of walked on egg shells
an anger simmers under the skin
to erupt like a paranoid volcanoΒ 
controlled emotionally by a butterfly's wing

Balancing on an impulse tightrope
with only suicide to catch
needing immediate professional help
so not to end as a body blood patch

Family and friends fail and flounder
the answer in sands of future maybe
only a conundrum of moods to see
from genetics, nurture, and perhaps hard luck
.........just another disordered personality!

A poem inspired by the mental illness 'Borderline Personality Disorder '

Hi Lisa Thankyou for your comment I hope I did it justice for you. I think my son suffers from this he has all the symptoms and he is waiting to see a therapist. I feel for you as it can be so destressing. I have witnessed so much suffering with my son he self harms and as been suicidal at times. At the moment he seems abit better, such a difficult illness.
