they never told me that happiness would be hidden in a teeny-tiny rounded tablet witch a notch to divide and reduce 30 mg to 15 like it's some humorless joke in which only the cynical people would get the punchline from and laugh. i never thought that my smile would be a result of a molecule structure, synthesized and ready to be sold for 5 euros but only if you live in a country with a non-profit health insurance. i also would never have guessed it to be such a creepy tongue-twisting name. i'm tripping on my words like amitriptyline trips on my jittery nerves. what's the point of being myself when being myself means being miserable? © fey (04/09/20)
