Broken

Clearing my thoughts isn’t always easy.
Speaking the truth,
To anyone who will listen.
Uttering the words, that hasn’t yet to form.
Your mind might not be working,
Put down that pill bottle.
And listen.
You are not broken.
Take off your sunglasses.
I can still see your eyes.
And your pupils are dilated.
We are here for you, big or small.
We are your family
And we love you.
Please stop hurting.
Why can’t I help you?
Your kids are watching
Your life is important.
What’s gonna happen when you’re in a hospital bed?
Don’t you remember why Daddy went?

Open your eyes, you’re not dead
Never thought while we played Barbie’s,
It would turn out like this.
Flush them pills down the toilet!
