Drug Resistant Depression

“What ever doesn’t kill you
wasn’t strong enough”
Claiming thoughts not my own
Up the dose, Doc!
These pills aren’t working
Side effects may include
Transplanted transmissions lost in translation
Put the “Harm” in Pharmacy
You call it Wellness
I call it a piss poor fix
for a vessel not certain
it's even broken
The only thing for certain
is I’ll be hurtin’
if I don’t find a solution, stat!
Trial and error
Every patient a lab rat
Look at me playing the victim
Like I’ve been done wrong
Truth is I want this
I want things to get worse
To get so unbearable
I take myself out
You think if you hate yourself enough
You’ll finally be worthy of Love
Continue to be a red-flag walking
in a game of capture the flag
on an empty field
