Meds

It’s just the medication. 

That makes me feel like something good is happening. 

So that when sleep refuses me-

I will shut up.

And I will be pleased.

What is waiting for me outside those doors?

A family?

My family. 

They don’t really miss me anymore.

Huh. 

I guess I shouldn’t try to miss them either.

I guess you should not make any decisions until you can do your own thinking . . . .
