Can you free me?
My mind is so confused
it's driving me insane
I feel I wanna be dead
but I have to move ahead.
Can you hear me little girl?
says the voice inside my head,
come and roll up this joint
it ain't the first time
so stop trying to pretend.
I try so hard to ignore
the anxious desire within,
but this pain cuts so deep
all I can do to stay alive
is to drink it all away.

alcohol always seems to promise short term solace. a very honest and poignant write.

I just drank a couple of Desperados but that's all I had, honest! Obviously this is serious stuff and I hope the subject can find some peace and control, assuming the poem's based on a real person.

we all need to escape but the road takes us back to the same old gate, ..
paint the gate and open it to be free ;)
