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
