Yogurt

I live every day in fear

Of being pulled down your genetic rabbit hole

To tumble and fall into the pile of pills you unsuspectingly drown in

Numbing your mind, clouding your eyes

They slip them into your yogurt when you arent looking

And so you spoon feed it to yourself,

Bit by bit

You swallow and smile

It's delicious, isn't it?

They they don’t know its not a choice

You were born to drown,

Whether in a pile of pills that clouds your eyes and slows your body

Or in uncontrollable emotion contorting your reality and killing your melodies.
