A snippet is shared from "Mary Lives - A story of Anorexia Nervosa & Bipolar Disorder:"
In this chaotic, desperate storm
the brain tries hard to gather its fragmented parts,
and anchor down the guy lines.
To weather out this hopeliness, this turmoil and this pain,
-prevent disintegration until the calm returns
and clear skies come again.
