After the first
Never again
The second
The same,
Regret, pain
The third
Disappointment, shame
The fourth
A piece of paper with a name
The fifth and I’m officially insane
Confusing clouds, constant rain
Begin to drain
Me
Thoughts, a fact
A pact
To myself
My rapidly deteriorating
Physical, mental, emotional health
31 tablets, 52
What difference does
A few
More make
Another mistake
I break,
Crack, smash
Like China
A million pieces
Despair fills the air
I lay, unconscious
Without a care
In the world
Sleeping tablets
And anti depressants
Desperately searching
For the essence
Of a hopeful soul
Hospitalisation
Anticipation, frustration,
Sedation
A safe place
With locks on the inside
Reflecting on the times
I’ve tried
Cried, lied
To break free
After the first
Never again
The second
The same
Regret, pain
The third
Disappointment, shame
The fourth
A piece of paper with a name
The fifth
And I’m officially insane
It stops here
Succumbed with fear
As I walk, tread, carefully
Undress the mess,
That is me.
