These highs like cocaine
I reject emotional pain
My brain got that fix
Appearance flaunted in vain
Reckless impulsivity
Believing myself a higher being
Careless of my words
Leaving wounds of hurt feelings
A vacuum for human energy
Festering hysterical power
Overwhelming irritability
My paranoia grows louder
Delusions fill my head
As this world slows around me
Voices deranged
With evil surrounding
Scrambling for an escape
Putting pen to paper
Releasing this shame
Freeing my emotional labor
Craving closure
This feeling outdated
As my brain starts to crash
And my manic high has faded
