Loving You, Losing Me

White, Dave. Cruising. September 7, 2024, Dave White Illustrations

Loving you felt like shoes on the wrong feet,

Every step is unsteady, an incomplete beat.

I could still move, but something felt wrong,

A rhythm off-key in a broken song.

Loving you felt like the wrong side of the bed,

Each morning heavy, a fog in my head.

The sun would rise, but I couldn’t see,

The weight of frustration consuming me.

Loving you felt like living alone,

Sharing space, yet my heart turned to stone.

Hours of silence, a ghost by my side,

Your presence forgotten; my loneliness amplified.

Loving you felt like pouring too deep,

Draining my soul, no strength left to keep.

I gave you my all, down to the last drop,

Yet the cup stayed empty, and I couldn’t stop.

Loving you felt like gasping for air

Anxiety gripping, a breathless despair.

My lungs collapsed under love’s cruel sting,

An endless fall without a wing.

Loving you felt like signing my death,

I’d give my last heartbeat, my final breath.

Like Juliet longing for Romeo’s embrace,

I would have died to be loved in your space

    Beyond Right and Wrong

    This exploration of ethical theories—spanning subjectivism, utilitarianism, divine command, and beyond—connects philosophy to lived experience. Through history, examples, and reflection, we consider how morality shapes culture, faith, and personal identity. On Poetic Bipolar Mind, ethics becomes more than theory; it becomes a language for art, healing, and human dignity.

  • The Price of Survival

    The Price of Survival

    Jonathan Swift’s A Modest Proposal exposed a world already devouring its poor. Centuries later, the feast continues—more civilized, more hidden, but no less cruel. The Price of Survival reflects on satire, power, and the grotesque truths we live, turning grief and silence into resistance through the act of writing.
