Pills

The blue ones make me happy...

The green ones make me calm...

The capsules keep me level...

I forget which ones are wrong...

The orange ones help me focus...

The white ones are for pain...

Sometimes I take so many

that I forget my name...

I'm careful what I wish for, for it may someday come true...

When I shatter on the floor all my pieces will still love you...
