everyone always says “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”
but what can i take for my depression to make a disappearance?
and what will it take for my happiness to make a reappearance?
i have tried everything from writing diaries to walking up hills
because still the doctor does not think i am ready for the pills
instead he gives me a list of the risks
ignoring that my mental health exists
but he cannot see that there is a gun currently aimed at my head
one more bad day and i will probably be shot dead
he cannot hear the voices
whispering in my ear to make the bad choices
down on my knees begging “why will you not help me?”
he carries the power to set me free
