The Yellow Pill -
May 6th 2021, 10:36 PM
Small, round, yellow salvation;
Ease my mind.
Halt its frantic ascension
Before it reaches its crescendo
And all goes black.
But he bars me.
He blocks my path.
As I press on through the woods,
Brambles and burrs
Give way to barbed wire
And a concrete wall,
Like a slap to the face.
I am suffering,
I implore him.
But he refuses
To tear down his defenses,
No exceptions.
Anger boils, rises, then subsides
Giving way to despair.
Left to stew
In this frenzy of madness.

The language you used in this one is amazing! I think it's one of my favorites you've written.
Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive

This is a really well written poem and I agree that the language you've used works really well to express how you feel. Thank you for sharing.
