I can’t sleep forever so I get out of bed
Overwhelmed, feeling like lead
Going through the motions of a brand new day
Battling the blues, how I wish they’d go away.
I arrive on time for my 3pm slot
With my psychologist, who cares a lot
It’s been a fortnight but I haven’t much to say
Knocked sideways by my monthly injection yesterday.
The session ends early & I wander home
To share my feelings in a dismal poem
On days like this I want to combust
Ashes to ashes & dust to dust.
Faith In The Ripple Effect
