Meds and love

A Poem by Baby Ricochet
"

Just rambling

"
I take meds to stay sane
I take meds to sleep 
I take meds for anxiety 
The sleep meds work
Anxiety meds with alcohol 
I don't remember s**t
But my girlfriend does
Man does that piss her off
So I don't mix anymore
Anxiety meds are "PRN"
Means "as needed"
So I don't take them everyday
When I was using steroids
I took more anxiety meds 
Juicing winds your a*s all up
I drank more too 
I felt indestructible is why
Steroids will do that to you
My girl didn't like that either 
So I'm off steroids right now
I've lost a good 25 lbs
and I'm much weaker 
I don't like that at all 
I like being gigantic
and lifting stupid heavy weights 
so the temptation to go back on 
is always beating around my head
But I promised I'd train clean
So that's what I have to do 
That's what you do in a relationship
You compromise

Medication, a relationship, an obsession, and a lesson made to take to heart: compromises is good for the overall health of a relationship. I like how you related it to your own story that could have possibly stretched out for years and used it to tell this little pearl of advice. Point taken! Haha, well done.

Thanks Jewel
That's very true. I always seem to have done the compromising, though...

Well that's lop sided
I've known a few on steroids (among other things), and it's a good thing you are off of it...

This is one compromise that will be in your favor, as well as hers. ;)

A great message, Baby...well expressed!.~xoxo~:)

A very truthful thoughtful write, I think it would work well as prose, short essay style.
