Pendulum

I’m feeling fine,
You calmly say.
Your life is good
And you’re okay.

I’m feeling good,
You realize.
Your heart is bright
As sunny skies.

I’m feeling bad,
You start to think
As all your spirits
Slowly sink.

You’re well again.
Your soul’s content.
But then you’re hit
With pure resent.

You’re doing great,
You’re grinning wide,
Until a rage
Fills you inside.

One minute, you feel
You could fly.
The next, you’re trying
Not to cry.

It comes and goes,
An endless track.
You think you’re fine.
And suddenly, whack:
The pendulum
Comes swinging back.
