Capsized in a sea of misery
A child overdoses on his own anxiety
This too shall pass
Close my eyes say a prayer it's out of my hands
Can anybody hear me
Does anybody see me
I need saving please
Am I the only one who sees it
Ashamed to admit it's you
Seductive destruction
Conjures an interstice
Between
Vicious cycles
Can't you see
What you've done to me
A hole in my soul
A part of me forever alone
I am the product of the problem
Looking you right in the face
Walking among
Displaced
Nothing replaced
This must be addressed
A mother at deaths doorstep
The children mourn in silence
Enough is enough
How much longer must we suffer
At the grips of this
Forced to acclimate
To an environment
In which we did not create
It lay reticent
It knows no bounds
Prescribing lifelong side effects
It came for them
It took from me
