#antidepressantwithdrawal
I'm tired- I'm aching My head feels as if breaking Hot- cold zaps and flashes Slice through from the back of my brain Body aches and chills rip on through Eyeballs pained from bright lights Patience thinner than cell membrane Anger- I hold in reserves for moments I need to tell oppressors off- Swelling into seismic tidal waves I cling onto my sanity- The shreds bits and pieces left As it feels I have none The urge to collapse keeps me company I force myself on- in the tsunami To sleep it off is a luxury- unaffordable So I drag myself to my workplaces For earning money is More important than my needs Earning money is my priority need Even if the back of my brain feels starved Oxygen running so low- if I were to Have been born of centuries prior- A drilled hole in my skull sounds wonderous Yet born of today- I know better And yet on my brain zap- booms- shreds itself Searching for the chemical happiness Encased in pretty pink pills Lost in the American healthcare war

Antidepressant Withdrawal
Can you come back home See the cracks along with the wildflowers along with the weeds Airplane arms flying concrete lanes Hopping- skipping- tripping pavement Apollo high in the sky Ticking timebomb tickling- oh so- tender Heartbeat jumping- pumping- thumping to the love Love encased within the home hearth Can you come back home To the earthen greens and towering trees - Hold Up - A brain zap and a brain tap massercering- The strength- the will- the want- the need To see it all so bright and warm The cracks cracking- shaking- breaking into molten chasms Wildflowers- weeds- alike swallowed Burnt alike- murdered alike- back to the core alike Arms crashing- smashing- snapping into concrete fields Timebomb looming- booming- shredding shrapnel through the love The love encased- suppressed- within the home hearth Mother nature aint your birther- she doesn't nurture The hearth ain't **** if your home bone cold Warmth make a home a home Gaia spits up- chews up- ***** up mankind Can you come back home no Make yourself your own ******* home.
