There is a tendency <br />That creates a dependency. <br />When life is filled with pain <br />Depression floods the brain. <br /> <br />Perhaps a simple pill <br />Will erase and fulfill. <br />The pressure is relieved <br />From a life that is deceived. <br /> <br />Chemicals reinforce a shield. <br />Improved, but not healed… <br />Reroute the emotional wires… <br />Lower the volume of amplifiers. <br /> <br />The pharmacy fills the scripts <br />That prevent an ebony eclipse. <br />Preventing tears of salty streams, <br />Seeking the sewer of empty dreams.<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/depression-54/
