Little brown bottle
sits on the shelf
beckoning me to partake
join in the numbing party
run from life
run from reality
run from ME
Little brown bottle
so full of confusion
give in to relief
give out to Addiction
run from truth
run from pain
run from ME
Little brown bottle
containing today's answer
for the questions
of yesterdays pain
run from conscious
run from conscience
run from ME
Author notes
While this is very personal to me I would like to explain that it is a daily debate that I have, for I live with chronic pain and the daily question for me is can I stand the pain to avoid the way the pain meds rob me of the sharpness of mind and emotion I prefer. The days that the answer is no, I still might have pain, but I no longer care.
To me, it is not a good feeling!
Please tell me what you think
