Best Manic Poems

Intense desires arise when turning manic!
     it's like a non-stop, full ejaculation
(from mania that feels like way orgasmic)

Pelvis and loins afire like fantastic,
     and engorged with such climaxed sensation;
Intense desires arise when turning manic! 

Eros peaks, then...

Manic Melancholia

He flew high as a kite with no ceiling concealing his madness

A hawker plying his trade with all prayers lost preying on reason

Sold out flapping wings and the wind soaring no sores attached

No strings yet a puppet found but not lost scraping skies all...

A dangerous mind and a broken soul,
Years of hiding had taken its toll. 
A cry for help mixed in with a joke,
I'm getting too weary to carry the yolk.
A sense of reality that slipping away,
I'd reach out for help if I wasn't afraid.
Hours awake locked...

I feel so freaking, God-like good;
     I feel My chest-expanding heart
and the mad frenzy in My blood,
     which tear My mind and soul apart!

These urgent voices in My head
     reverberate and echo loud
memories...

Wild with unbounded energy tonight,
     I eschew my med's; but I soon then hear 
     the frightful voices trumpet in my ear;
they haunt me into the stillness of night
as I transform into a monstrous sight

In a subtle way 
 She sighed 
 Even how she waited
 Why won’t the sky fall tonight?
 Why are these memories mine?
 I could take her in my arms 
tonight
 And I could take this PAIN
 And what if it never rains…
Can I kiss...

Depression is like dying
without hope this process will end well,
without remediation
at least not for my closely held ego-identity,
and despair 
this turning inward
creates a cocoon by avoiding outward.

Focal awareness of ego mortality, 
immanent and emanant,
eminent,
turns inward,
returns inward
in despairing response against outward;
the whats and whos of external...

Lovely Jen a poetic romantic
A mask she hated with the pandemic
Rhinestone, pearls, a smiley face
She decorated the lace
Her boyfriend though she was kind of manic.

If I skip sleep and skip my med's tonight
against my doctor's warning, I'll soon hear
the strident voices trumpet loud and clear,
unnerving me,--trust me, it's no delight!
When I'm bipolar I fail to comply 
and manias become fearfully near
'til I'm committed three times ev'ry year;--
it's a pain...

Once upon a Monday manic morning I awoke in panic,
Panic with foreboding wrapped, into a world of troubles trapped,
I felt distinctly I’d been slapped, and from my bed of warmth been torn,
My eyes went wide, I cried and cried, that manic morn when I was...

Manic-Depression

An illness that consumes me
Speaking endless lies to me
Misconstruing the world for me
Refusing to set me free
Binding me to self destructive tendencies 
Cheating me of what life could be
Supressing the love within me
Strengthening the anger buried inside of me
Distorting the truth right before me
Making me...

“Fear whispers worry into your ear, anxiety into your hopes and doubt into your faith… Love whispers hope and peace” – by poet

With a brain washed pale
By voices thundering
Silent screams echoing through me
Clearing away the debris
Of disappointment and disillusionment
My mind darkened on a clear night
No...

Dancing prancing
cry cry cry
Whirling twirling
die die die

Up on the roof top
Laughing with maniacal glee
Saddest moment ever
Keeping this to myself, as you can see

Shopping, buying everything in sight
Wishing someone would unplug me
Or turn out the light

Life of the party, collecting strangers all around
Falling fast, and hard,...

Hot mess,
Bipolar express.
Welcome to my hypomanic hell,
Depression so intense 
It feels like a spell.

Mania,
The broken wheel on your shopping cart
That makes you really good at art.
Depression,
The isolation station
That it kills your imagination....

There are days I don’t want to feel,
There are days I want to destroy all I’ve healed.
There are days that I sail,
Through the skies without fail
On a manic high,
I feel amazing without having to try.
There are days that I’m so angry,
Like a big cry baby
And...
