what if there is no Covid-19
what if my life is different
what if I can plan my future
and every step can be calculated
what if I don’t have to live by the day
as I don’t know what will
happen the next day
what if I don’t have so many ifs
and let things come what may
even though
one day
circumstances are in my favour
another day
things happen against my wishes
even though
I’m on a roller-coaster ride
with ups and downs
interchange within a short time
why should I complain
is it not enough to be loved
am I too greedy
for wanting too much
but I’ve learned
and have learned well -
not to despair
not to be overjoyed
keep my mood under control
I have found my way
to live with bipolar disorder
