The Pill of Life

If there was a pill that I could take today This pill could hit the spot without delay And this pill was the same shape as your loving heart It will cure all my ills and my pains for a start It can make a path down to my weary soul And it can build me up and make me feel whole If this pill is your love and you send it to me Then I will swallow it quickly and just wait and see This pill must come with a strong warning too Will you take my heart shaped pill I sent to you This heart as a pill will work for the one and only Cures all the ills and stops one being lonely If affected don’t drive or use heavy machines Give to the one you love, and start living your dreams © 23/01/2013 Contest Entry for The Pill of Life Contest sponsored By Russell Sivery

Reads as if you are describing "soma", taken by the inhabitants of London in Aldous Huxley's novel "Brave New World".
