Chemicals

October 8, 2012

If I’m being honest, I’m a little bit lonely.

I’m a little bit sad.

I’m a lot bit frustrated by the way my brain relies on a little white pill to keep it’s s*** together.

I’m disheartened that I have to rely on a chemical to feel normal.

I’m infuriated by the fragility of my emotions and the way they are manipulated by a single dose.

I’m scared of the feeling of having no control and even more so of the way my mind suggests to fix it.

This poem is about my frustration and struggle with depression and the fact that I have to take medication for it.
