Help you
By Naledi Setzin
Help You
We are here to help you,
They say,
Prescribing me more pills to numb the pain,
I gulp the water down my throat,
And go sleep the day away,
We are here to help you,
They claim,
Loud voices run in my mind,
They contradict each other,
Anger and bicker,
So bitter,
We are here to help you,
They state,
I feel neglected and miserable every moment,
My gloomy feelings won’t disappear,
Adopting the mindset of failure,
We are here to help you,
They spit,
I refuse to endure the abuse,
Alarmed at their lack of knowledge,
I won’t be burdened with another tablet,
I want control of my sanity,
Let me have my freedom.
