A Manic-Depressive Love

It has its highs and lows
with nothing in-between
a teeter-totter relationship
a parody of extremes

We either love real good
with passion pressured lust
with heated words of romance
with tender knowing trust

We cuddle day and night
sleep in each others arms
whisper sweet nothings for hours on end
bathe in each other charms

and then it flips the other way
to silence and cold nights
avoided looks of sheer distrust
when nothing seems quite right

sleeping on opposite sides of the bed
bodies turned away
heaven forbid that we might touch
or get in each others way

In this see-saw type of love
We seem to fluctuate
tween throes of utter tenderness
and  treks of  bitter  hate

So now that we are quite aware
of our  manic-depressive state
lets quit this madness right away
I can hardly wait  ! ! !

I hate see-saws !!!
