PillsA Poem by Light
I do know what it is like
To feel pain beyond belief To be crying at the end of the night Because of another day without relief To be told you are broken And be pumped full of pills As if they could "fix" you By taking away your will To be called spaz, retard, F****t, gay Weak, worthless Believing it more every day To have been told I'm unwanted! "No one wants you" they'd say Always followed by that common phrase "Just go away" "Just kill yourself" Yeah, they'd go that far To say all those words To this day, I still feel them like a scar And that was just in sixth grade! How could it compare? To six more years of being picked last And left to pretend I didn't care I've accepted I wont be loved I've accepted I wont ever be protected But why does that mean Every day is so dreaded? I had to repair myself! No one came to my side! No one called to comfort me Any of the nights I cried! Juggling depression, paranoia, ADHD Counting all of the things I will never be Beautiful, happy, successful, and together Together... with someone I can trust forever. But still, each night. I will eventually fall asleep Something keeping me afloat In this tidal wave of defeat. What? A hope? For a person who will love? I doubt it, who would come down from above For me? I'm just a wrong answer A screw up, a mistake. How? When all you could know are these pills I am forced to take.
