Repeat Prescription
Repeat Prescription
——————————-
Depression is my diagnosis
This I feel my synopsis
If I can I’ll try to explain
In as many words that I can pertain
I feel devoid of all
emotion , devotion ,satisfaction and resolution
I’ve no
Ambition , vision , intention or conviction
I’m drowning in
Sadness , morbidness , helplessness and madness
Overrun with
Shame ,pain , blame and disdain
Overflowing with
Regretfulness , sorriness ,
Unhappiness and loneliness
Totally consumed in
Powerlessness, weaknesses ,worthlessness and helplessness
All I seek is
Conclusion , solution ,ceastation and completion
Just a little
Release , peace , ease and decrease
And show some
Drive , survive , alive and pride
Where I am now I never
Chose , supposed , proposed
Or opposed
And so now all I have is
Remoteness , vacantness ,
Emptiness and blankness
And so my prognosis
Is simply this a
miserable life of
mental paralysis
Here I give you my prescription
There is no
Expiration , solution termination or vaccination
Your affliction is
Irreversible , untreatable , terminal and unbearable
So take two a day one in the morning and one at night
if the pain persists you’ll need to enlist
An exorcist or spiritualist
