The Pills
As the day ends and the night comes
 I try to take my pills but can’t 
 my hand just won't reach my mouth
 I know I need the pills but theres something 
 something tying my hand down 
 and the voices in my head telling me i don’t need them
 that im fine without them 
 The the voices tell me put more in my hand so i do 
 and the weight that was holding my hand down let go 
 and i put the pills to my mouth but could not swallow 
 my conscience wouldn’t let me 
 i spit the pills out 
 my dad came home and picked them
 up  off the floor and shoved them in my mouth and said you need these you stupid girl
 he suffocated me till i swallowed all 50 of my pills 
 I was getting dizzy I passed out 
 I woke in a dark room 
 red eyes 
 stared at me 
 from the corner
 I tried to escape but there isn’t any doors or windows 
 I’m trapped in my dark soul with no way out 
 voices talk to me saying that i'm always going to be welcome in this place because there is no way out 
 get cozy and settle in 
 you’re never leaving your soul
