Life hurts

 No surprises,

Same old brand new you. 

Still fighting those demons, 

Endless sleepless nights. 

Mental health just another tablet. 

And no one calls back.

You've walked everyday 

It's not going to cure

The trauma that's held you hostage

For so long. 

Fresh air doesn't cure

The hurt, 

Being gaslighted 

Thaf your physical being 

Is wrong. 

Made to believe you're not good enough, 

Til you had enough.

The doors don't close over enough

To block out outside. 

We aren't ment to exist in the outside world.

The push and shove. 

With no desire to push back.

Six sessions of counseling 

Isn't going to help any of that. 

The doctor says the meds are all the same, 

So no point changing 

Something that doesn't work.

Something that can't heal the hurt. 

The demons wait

Knowing I never learn. 

The toss and turn. 

The birds don't sing no more. 

The doctors booked up, 

Life hurts.
