Meditation vs. Medication

The poison is slowly seeping out of my veins
I couldn't take the side affects of Abilify anymore.

Now i'm riding the maniac waves
with the highs come the lows
i'll glady ride it out
rather then being a petrified version of myself.

Freedom so important to me
I want my creative side to soar
it's a strange ride true
full of twists and turns
right now my insides are churning.


So in my minds eye I swim to the shore of peace
where there are tropical gardens
and the sun gently kisses my skin.

A fragrant breeze wafts on the air
adorning my hair a wreath of daisies
I lie down in the garden and take a deep breath
watching as the clouds make pictures in the sky.

My mind now free
no mania to bind me
meditation bringing me release
so needed and desired.
