I am happy for once,
This drug has taken away my pain.
No more teary eyes and sleepless nights,
I am finally managed not to go insane.
But I know that it wont last.
Once they have wore off and I am sober,
The pain will return again.
My life will become a blur.
If I take them again, I will be okay,
But a life on this drug is no life at all,
When I am medicated to feel nothing around me.
It's almost like having to put up another wall.
Even when I think it will be alright,
Then I am reminded of all my sadness.
But whether or not I block out the world,
Is driving back to complete madness.
So I will take this drug and cure the problem,
For once I am happy to say
That my pain is gone and I am still sane,
But only until the end of the day
I wrote this poem for people that think they have to medicate themselves to live through each day.

I loved those first four lines. Those are beautiful.
Nice write

I spent the last few years on heavy medication, I now take some other stuff that dosen't fully work. I have found a balance between sanity and insanity that I can live with. When I stand in rebellion against all the demons I stand alone but reading your poem shows me that the fight is worthy for I dream of worlds known only to me but I would share them with thee and learn of the places you go in the night when you are alone but never on your own. Battle Joined is my cry
