Chaos and Order- Tormented

My head hurts really bad, it's much turmoil in my mind
I don't know what’s real or fake, I long for peace
Some days I’m really scared like someone is chasing me 
Everything is jumbled and mixed up, I want to be free

 I take what the doctor prescribed and I wait
It takes a while for me to feel somewhat better
When it kicks in my life is tolerable, it has order 








Inspired by Nette's Contest: Choas And Order

A cool anti-everyone-gets-a-trophy poem, Alexis. A nice kick-in-the-head when those meds kick in. Sometimes, pain is a person's portion of living. Pray to God that He gives you a high tolerance threshold for pain. This poem is a 7 and a fave. Cool double combo for this tasty treat. Love and more love to you, dear.

This one hurt to read my friend. Though, form what I know about the contest, it seems perfect to me for the theme because it cries loudly of chaos but finds peace when order is restored. Good luck Alexis.
