Side Effects

 Taking the moments as they pass

in a place where control

is thinning in my face. . .


What a disgrace, 

I am taking place

in the madness.


A therapeutic level

of Side Effects

and I try to be direct.


The fear takes hold,

I cannot be labeled

as uncooperative.


I want everything to work out

as I lie to myself.


I must be wrong

and unworthy of the chance

to be well by choice.
