Temporary fix

Small tablets of poison
an excuse for relief
masking my distortion
unleashing their grief

happiness in a bottle
religiously prescribed
controlling harsh symptoms
that I have described

colorful toxins
acid to my sould
burning and killing
my weak self controll

temporary fix
to ongoing pain
helping controll
what my mind can't contain

disguising my flaws
hiding my pain
trying to mask
what they can't explain.
