Held up by a crutch Counting down thee days Of my demise My third eyes dwelling Over four decades Of thoughts and memories That never fade Piled up As they continue to evolve And escalate to unhealthy levels What’s real is make believe A better alternative Rubik’s cubes Slowly plucking Away at my sanity I lay awake All times of night Never knowing which Way I’ll go as the roller coaster Takes over The chemicals In my body Feel more like poison Far from comforting They paralyze me in my tracks Where is the real healing at My mind Often miss fires Short circuits I feel so depressed and blue Ready to rip my hair out The happy thoughts And pleasures last a moment If I’m lucky Are quickly replaced As the bullets fly like no tomorrow Emotions that run me ramped Leave me in shambles Nine times outta ten Tainted goods I become A happy go lucky state exterminated Dopamine trip no where in sight
