"The shadows grew within my quiet room,
As lonely seasons drifted slowly by.
The golden days, spent in heavy gloom,
Beneath a gray and unresponsive sky.
The weight of all those years upon my heart,
Has carved a hollow place inside my chest.
I feel I lack the strength to make a start,
But when my Lord Jesus says 'I will do this part',
The weight that was holding down and suffocating this kid.
Is suddenly relieved, as if it was just lifted.
There's aspects of life in which I am subpar,
But at times whilst writing I do feel a bit gifted.
Though on my own, if I write, it doesn't get far."

I'm experiencing constant pain.
My psychiatrists are lacking a brain.
Things were on track, now they've derailed the train.
They've chopped off my meds and now I'm feeling insane.
I don't know how much longer I can endure all this pain.
Withdrawal from my anxiety meds keeps me awake
It's been years, and now I'm wondering how much more pain I can take.
I give it to God but my body still shakes.

The hammer is falling, my fists are clenching, my teeth are gnashing while my bones are crunching. Waves of pain are crashing, smashing against me, finally breaking. This level of pain can't be good to be taking, bad for my health. The voices are calling but no one is there, not even myself. My blood is pumping, sped by adrenaline dumping. The lack of the drug is inducing my mind to start seizing, both my legs are freezing, involuntarily quaking. The sensation of claws are slashing my back. As my heart keeps thumping, jumping around - heart attack? Now my blood is pooling. So the attack dogs keep drooling. They smell the blood and begin to whip into a frenzy, so I jump up, and run like McKenzie. Moving fast, as if I had wheels, one dog was faster and now nips at my heels. The dog bit my foot so I tripped and then fell. Now it’s gnawing on my leg, and I don’t feel very well. So I patted the dog’s head and then laid down for a spell…will I wake up? Only time will tell. When I come to my senses I won't feel at all well. Life hurts at times, unbearably so. If not for Divine intervention, I'd much rather go.
