Diagnosed

Something must be wrong with me,
I'm the anxious and troubled kind.
Will someone diagnose me?
Medicate my puzzled mind?

Something isn't right with me,
I'm dependent on my pills.
I've been diagnosed already,
I know that I am ill.

None of that is the burning issue,
none of that is the matter at hand.
I don't really need your therapy,
Bottled up with a fancy brand.
Pass me out with all your drugs,
Write another recipe.
Whatever takes the least of your time,
Whatever leaves the rest to me.

Something here is undefined,
I'm still the anxious and troubled kind.
Will someone sedate me?
And soothe my puzzled mind?

Something here is beyond me,
I'm still dependent on my pills.
I've been diagnosed already,
Why do I suffer still?

None of that is the burning issue,
none of that is the matter at hand.
I don't really need your therapy,
Bottled up with a fancy brand.
Pass me out with all your drugs,
Write another recipe.
Whatever takes the least of your time,
Whatever leaves the rest to me.

I don't really need your therapy
I've been diagnosed already
Might as well leave the rest to me

  2. oh wow. I think that writing rhymes is really really really difficult! I can´t do it anyway, it starts to sound so.. well not nice anyway. so this is something I could never do.. I mean, I could never write like you anyway but writing rhymes.. nonono.

  3. I don't know about rhymes, I just catch words. I don't really intend to write any special way, they just turn out that way when I guide them to paper. ;)

    Thank you so, so much... I can't really find any words enough to thank that comment, DP. Really can't. You got my heart very much warmed up nonetheless :)
