Drowning My Mind Poem by Kay Bell

take a couple pills
to kill what i dont want to feel
keep myself from crying
the only way i can heal
a tear slides down my cheek
as these thoughts run through my head
take another pill
make myself feel dead
like a zombie walking through life
i cant see anyones face
a blur of moving shadows
how much more can i really take?
in a daze of nothing
its better to forget
take another pill
something i dont regret
drowning out what hurts the most
pretending its not real
stuck inside an illusion
a place i dont have to feel
in a world of my own
lost where no one can see
take another pill
the only way to be
