&quot;Someday, someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else.&quot;<br /> &quot;we often put up walls not to keep people out, but to see who cares to get through&quot;<br /> &ldquo;Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don&#039;t matter, and those who matter don&#039;t mind.&rdquo;


My mom has bipolar disorder.
Some think it defines an individual,
But they’re wrong.
She has extreme mood swings,
And a warm heart.
There are days where she won’t seem like my mom,
But she still loves her family.
She’s severely depressed,
Yet it’s not always visible.
Then, without warning, she’ll snap.
Everyone has their issues because everyone is different.
