Little White Pills

One foot in chaos.

 

One foot in beginnings.

 

Little white pills.

 

To stop the nightmare from repeating.

 

 

Now I’m numb.

 

And I can’t decide.

 

Which side of the blade I prefer.

 

I know it’s wrong.

 

 

I have people that care, that love.

 

I know they depend.

 

That I have an impact.

 

On many, and it goes beyond me.

 

 

But it’s a fatal flaw.

 

To be born with awareness.

 

And if you don’t take aim.

 

At something at all.

 

The creature will grow.

 

So onward and upward.

 

Or not at all.
