Array ( [sid] => 66941 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => trapped in the Rx [time] => 2004-10-11 08:10:07 [hometext] => I wrote this last night all faded from the meds I am on... [bodytext] => I am sitting here trying to write what I feel
I want to be blunt and I want to be reel
But I am so completely jaded
The drugs have got me completely faded
I want to express the pain inside
that somehow these drugs have managed to hide
it is hard because I sense it in there
I am trying to rip it out from somewhere
I need to release the memories and tears
that have been collecting over all these years
So I sit like a fool and rhyme away
Probably will laugh at this someday
Because I once had emotion that was blatant to see
But now I write like a tranquilized zombie…
I would stop taking them so I could tell
Of all the times I’ve gone through hell
so I sit here feeling numb and wonder why
over all those things did I even cry?
I know they are twisted, sick, and painful
But for some reason these drugs don’t let me be truthful
They make me groggy and foggy and weak
And I slur my words when I speak
I have to spell check again and again
Thank god I am not writing this mess with a pen
But back when I felt the pain that’s now trapped,
When I was completely in emotions wrapped,
I begged and cried to be released,
Pleading for the memories to be deceased.
And thanks to my insurance
I thought I found reassurance
Instead I made a trap inside
For the memories to wait and hide
So one day when I run out of medication
The day I am no longer under sedation
they will knock on the door of remembrance,
and won’t need an invitation of entrance,
They will rush in like pouring rain
And then
Only then will I be able feel the pain again.

Really, what's worse. To live in a state of sedated numbness, or to be tortured by life's hellacious memories? I just don't know. This was a good write, much feeling and emotion. I hope you find peace. Kudos!

A poem so full of emotions, and flowing in ryme, I know how you feel though, Sicne my back injury, I have been on and of painkillers, though I am trying to stay off them now, prefer the pain, to doped out brain.
Awesome write, enjoyed the read, and may you find the peace you seek in life.
