Medicate

This is about classmates who would medicate because they had to much on their plate. They were in constant debate, with school, family and social life they couldn't equate and nobody could see they were under enormous weight trying to please people by being great. Now full of confusion and delusion, life they started to hate, so they would self medicate. Not knowing The Beast was lying in wait for them to open the gate and it was going for, Checkmate. They thought it would dissipate if they could regulate, but kept finding more reasons to celebrate and it would only escalate. They had opened the gate now The Beast would dictate when to medicate and they found too late, The Beast is a Super Heavy Weight. They were devastated and stagnated living in complete disgrace. Then along came the beautiful face of Grace. People who could relate and demonstrate how it's ego you can deflate and change your fate. They became captivated, then dedicated, now donating their time educating. So beware, when you self medicate you'll release a Super Heavy Weight. CHECKMATE.
