No more meds and no more T
I’ve had quite enough of this, you see
No more talks and no more pills
No more books and no more billsI’m going to take a break for now
But I’m not exactly certain how
I’m going to wing it from here on out
It can’t be any worse, I doubtI’ll go to work and I’ll play the game
I’m sure I’ll look pretty much the same
At home I’ll smile and just be myself
And avoid pesky questions about mental healthMy friends and family might wonder why
But who cares what they think, my life is a lie
I only exist because I can’t leave
My thread is twisted in this bitter weave

Hey Scott. This last section was my favorite, boy can i relate. i'm so confused right now with and without meds, i think i'm realizing so many parts of my life are a lie. I've always known much was a lie but i thought they were all lie's to everyone else, now i'm finding things that have been lies to myself. things i'd forgotten. Things no one in my life Now can know. It's like i finally find the truth and yet still have to lie about it...boy my head spins just thinking about it. My brains been mush this last week so sorry if i'm rambling and not making sense.
I also really like the last two lines. My feeling free these last 8 years have been a lie, i'm still trapped, still chained up i just covered it up. I've noticed that my threads are breaking one...by one...
i've become quite scared. of memories, of lies, of everyone, and of myself. The problem is now i can't seem to hide anywhere anymore. i'm lost.
-sorry for rambling.
overall point? loved your writing, and the last paragraph touched me. it's kind of an open wound right now which is what i felt was in your poem.

Is this homemade? It's a good song. Just needs music.
