I thought acid would cure my depression

Feedback Received!

Thoughts

Swimming around like crocodiles

In denial, in reform

Smoking reefer to re-form this brain

I refer my fame to the drain

Pour out the pain

.

Ostracize myself, elephant in the room

Nobody speaks about me or to

Me, alone in my gloom

Mr. solo

Don't know

How to speak

I peaked in 1st grade

Depressed since then

Repressed a thousand grins

I digress, I press this knife to my chest

And dive in

.

I'm a crocodile

Swimming through thoughts

Devouring each one

Like goldfish

During a smoke-sesh

On the couch, so lazy

Fat croc now satiated

Hazed and half dead

Half crazy, so mad

Red as the devil

Smoke pouring

Down my throat

Like wine

.

And I plug in the line

Let the music flow

Bicycles for two

But I'm isolated

Faded, silently

Screaming for Mother

Don't go, Daddy

Come home

.

But it's too late now

I've let it all go

Poured acid on this

Plastic contraption

Let it melt into a rainbow

God's promise

That he told me

He would tell

If I would let myself fall

So I did and all I found

Was darkness

At the bottom

Of this well

.
