My Deep Thoughts Poem by Aida Roque

I fell into a deep thoughts..
until when the substance will
keep my body afloat.
Fighting the chronic pain and
how to gain back my confidence,

Condoning myself, to keep me
going, move forward and take
my life back in control. Taking
prescription and being dependent
on pain reliever until succumbed to
addiction.

My brain dysfunction-function,
to suppressed and confused,
Vision blurring, eyes in psychedelic
colors and mental presence passed
out. What needs to be done, I shout.

Like a puppet under the spell of
synthetic drugs, take this and that..
now what? I forgot, who I was but..
when I see myself in the mirror,
I see my conscience begging, STOP!
