Best Pill Poems
There has to be another way
cause I fear staying will only break me quicker
I'll snap like a twig
therefore I'm consumed by my meds
Doctors think i'm crazy
Just cause i'm sad
A kid is supposed to be happy
Atleast that's what they keep telling me
my parents lose sleep cause I won't just pretend
Their so stuck being normal
that they never realized they made me this way
So they should stop alienating me
Cause genetics is genetics
I heard my mom was strung out on weed
before she even knew I was developing in her belly
Dad was a young Alchoholic
yet he doesn't understand why I get thirsty
Now i'm not tryna be like them so don't get me wrong
It's just that they try to cover it up like they were perfect
Cleaned their act up before I was old enough to understand
So now I take this pill
Doctors claim it will heal me
It'll destroy everything that's consuming me
Will it make my parents accept me?
Will it make them finally take some of the blame?
Will it make them tell me they love me?
I doubt it.
The pains of those ailments that grab us at will
Once better, like stalkers, can linger on still
But it’s patently true that life’s bitterest pill
Is the pain when it’s someone you love that is ill
When struck down, bedridden, we try to be brave
Though we feel our survival might be a close shave
But we’d gladly accept our God’s beckoning wave
If that keeps our loved one away from their grave
*
And so when I hear that slight tremor of fear
No hug and no words for the one I hold dear
Can bring forth a smile full of genuine cheer
And that forehead kiss… conceals my own tear
At night, to the God in whom I don’t believe
I sheepishly say, “I don’t want her to leave.”
I snuggle up close, I’m not ready to grieve
And I smile in the morning as I hear her breathe
The doctors I’ve trusted I must trust in still
For they’ll mend her again; I’m sure that they will
But it’s patently true that life’s bitterest pill
Is the pain when it’s someone you love that is ill

I've got my pain pills
I've got my allergy pills
I've got my sleeping pills
I've got my eye drops
I've got my digestion pills
I've got my skin care supplements
I've got no heart ache pills...
Here take this pill
Here take this pill
Here take this pill
and again and again
Until seven pills stayed
One doctor for this
One doctor for that
and one doctor who just puts it all in his computer
I have a sniffle, are you sure
I think I' sick, are you sure
My back hurts, are you sure
What medications are you taking
I feel this was
I feel that way
I feel feeling like everyone else
And all they want to know is what meds I am taking
I hide behind my looks
so mundane and normal
hoping no one sees me
This shell is killing me
I change my hair
I change my look, one that suits me
I see eyes widen up
I hear expressions of wow...um ok
This is my true skin that wakes up my soul
I am not typical
I know I am severely judged
What meds are you taking
life is a pill
waiting for the bottle to refill
it takes away the feeling
but not the hurt that's dealing
it keeps you under control
but not the violence in your soul
it makes you relax
but not from having to face the facts
it helps you to go to sleep
but not from the nightmares your forced to keep
it helps you to focus all day long
but not keeping you from thinking wrong
and when you realize the pill has not helped you before
you will not want to take them anymore
Broken and battered
slipshod and shattered
we've all but hidden
amongst the scattered
Lost in our wake
we fake and then take
shelter oblivious
to what's truly at stake
Trembling in fear
from the darkness near
trying to hold on
to what we hold dear
Our heart cry's are hollow
while we stand strong to follow
all along,
it's a tough pill to swallow...
It's easier to sedate
then to truly relate
purposeful forgetting
instead of facing the slate
During the course of our sleep
we must try hard to keep
that feeling inside
which reach far and deep
There is no silver bullet
no magic pill to pull us
from this stupor
we have fallen to dullness
We are all searching for answer's
which we won't find on paper
written in our heart's
is our creator's Love draper...
Red one
Blue one
Old on
New one
Ah heck
Side effects
I think I am
Due one
They’ll flatten
Or fatten
Always been
In Latin
Or tongue twistish
Latinglish
To patent
A statin
But I’ve had my fill
And summoned the will
To say bye to the ill
Coz I’m over the pill
There were lots
Of drug shots
That I got
For clots
And sun spots
To slow snots
And fix rots
As a tot
I shopped ‘em
And stocked ‘em
Then popped ‘em
Or swapped ‘em
I ravaged
And damaged
Til a salvage
Was managed
Lived in sin
To my kin’s
Own chagrin
I was lost
And was tossed
‘Til therein
Bought low cost
Vitamins
I’ve shaken
The achin’
Forsaken
The fakin’
Nor more need
Of needles
As I’m free
Of evils
I’m not yet over the hill
But have had more than my fill
And I at last, have the will
To be so, over the pill
Who we are, we tend to forget
Transfixed in thoughts, desires beget
The rot, dear hearts, has sunk in deep
Our consciousness needs a reset
Witness cravings upon us creep
Into core of heart, they thus seep
So unless we choose to be still
We’ll feel not, the divine bliss beep
Matrix question: blue or red pill
As with Neo, we use free will
Choosing to plunge into the void
That soul fissures, Gods grace does fill
18-June-2022
If you go first I’ll stomp and shout
I’ll be absolutely furious
I’ll rage and shut out the world
That’s for sure
But one day
I know I’ll come around
And actually be thankful
Because of the two of us
You always said I was the strong one
And because I love you
I would never wish
That bitter fate upon you
If we could not depart as one
For your sake better it be you
I’m more equipped
Or at least that’s what we think
To unleash my wrath
In creative ways
Hoping I’ll not permanently drown
In the deep black hole
Of eternal despair and anxiety
When all is said and done
I'd hope to delve in the pool of inspiration
As I cling to the hope
Of rejoining you
My soulmate
My love

B*lly Pop's Pill (VIAGRA)
Let me tell you a story about my grandpa B*lly.
He popped too many pills to encourage his w*ly
Instead he earned a new name for being Silly
We call him B*lly PoP's Pill
Poor grandpa was way over the hill
To him his stock was still a big deal
I scheduled him an appointment to visit his Doc.
He did not want to understand he had no more rocks.
Poor grandpa reminisces the days when he was a jock.
His Doc, Prescribed him two bottles of xx Hot VIAGRA
Grandpa B*lly popped them as if there was no tomorrow
Now he is sweating like the Falls in Niagara
Grandpa did not listen to the Doc's lead
B*lly Pop's Pill until his urine started to bleed
Grandpa started acting as if he was on speed
Grandpa popped out with his inflatable doll Mrs.Lill
Soon I discovered he swallowed every single VIAGRA pill
I took him to the hospital after he got real ill
I told the Doc, my grandpa is over the age of sixty five.
He almost overdose drinking all them wanna be pills
His only reaction was popping out with zits and hives.
At the hospital my grandpa was dreaming of Woodstock.
Next thing you know I see him on top of the Doc.
I laughed at the fact that my grandpa got over his s*men block.
I took grandpa home he had sick sticky cobbwebs on his hand
At that point he was no longer under the Doc's command
Alone at last in his room with Mrs.Lill was his master plan.
The bottom line is my grandpa is sparking what was not alive.
Now he is over 65 with an enormous sex drive.
Who would have guessed it took all them pills to revive his thrive
I'm glad my grandpa tried xx Hot VIAGRA when his feelings where gone.
Now he abuses his inflatable dolls with all his hard on's
Addicted to Viagra he buys a new doll ever time he is done..
.By:P.D.
Viagra is the pill for me
Two minutes and I’m hung like a tree
With me gland
In me hand
Oh boy six hour of yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
*me poor pecker*
Afore falling in his arms they advice to think twice
Unregretful I act beyond my surprise
It’s the grip of a force, a force here to claim
Compelling, like a moth drawn to the flame
Every night encloses the heat of flaming souls
But sun kissed morning plays a wicked role
To my realization it brings an obvious question
What next to prevent conception?
Like always, I pop in a pill to save the bill
My guy admires the worth of a contraceptive pill
It causes side-effects. Ah! How would he know?
He enjoys the freedom of reckless show
Nevertheless, I look at kids and admire their innocence
Wish the pill could kill within me my maternal pretence!
