I forgot to take my pills
I know I am sick still
For dreams do come
For reality I question
I run from a night so very long
I run from 3 am
And darkness so very strong
What do my pills do
Without them I am sick
Without them my life is that of a fool
I don’t know why my life is saved
By chemicals that hurt
By chemicals that already bury me
In a shallow, muddy grave
I hate the chemicals that I know help
For, because of them, pain is felt
I take my pills, as dreams stall sleep
I take my pills, for open eyes
Still make me weep
