CARNIVAL COMPLEX ptsd

Written By If you don’t quit you win

In this lost, cant use Waze

Mirrored walls

Moving floors

No Carny at the door

My mind is a maze

Not lost

I can't find my way out of it

Grown man, kid broken in my reflection

Like a side show

My mind freaks me out

Nightmares? Night terrors? Id sleep better with the lights off

Damn you Edison for giving me a light at night

Thank you Edison for giving me a light in my fight

Invading my resting dreams

I was always better at defense

Hard to tackle what you cant see

But in these times I'm not lost

Although I'm scared not alone

There is peace in these halls

Befriending my enemy in my mind

Its real but he’s not a he

He’s a just a memory

Learning to laugh and breath

In my mazed mirrored mind

If you don’t quit you win

If you don’t quit you win exists to motivate and mentor young people with mental health challenges. To partner with parents. To resource administrators, teachers, and coaches.
