Carnival Clown

Manic depression flows
keeping me off balance
I get frustrated
because I keep making the same mistakes,
like a clown in confusion
I have no direction
and I've become oblivious and numb
as I slowly go insane.
I hold on tight
as the roller coaster of emotional torture
takes me up
then quickly brings me down,
I'm so broken
I don't know what to feel now.
In the carnival of lost souls
I'm just one of the many confused clowns
silently screaming as I ride the carousel of doubts
because I got this feeling
I'll never find my way out.

While I think this is sad, I do like the concept here of the carnival of lost souls.
I sincerely hope things get better for you.

| Your metaphors spot on as you poetically express the horrors of manic depression, exacerbated by insomnia. |
