Just One Pill

A pill to take away the constant dark clouds of despair. 
A pill to take away the thoughts on endless replay. 
A pill to take away the crippling fear. 

Now I pay the price. 
Will my body ever be the same? 

That pill took my waist. 
That pill took my desire. 
That pill took my emotions; only a few come through.
