(I want to start off by apologizing for the delay. I'm so sorry! Okay you may now continue)

Warning!! (Drug use)

In the crowd, alone
I'm walking to my next class. You're not by my side, you left me long ago. They shoot me glances, but they don't care. I'm walking to my next class.

And every second passing, reminds me I'm not home
I'm alone. You're no longer by my side, like you once were. They all have someone, but I don't. I'm alone.

Bright lights and city sounds, are ringing like a drone, unknown
I'm blinded. The ceiling lights are so bright, just like your smile. The voices around me are so loud, so unimportant, so monotone, so dull. I'm blinded.

Blazed eyes, empty hearts
I'm crying. There are tears prickling my eyes and red rimming around them. My heart is there, but it feels nonexistent. I'm crying.

Nothing but time to kill
I'm skipping class. I can't concentrate. I go to the bathroom and lock myself in a stall, nowhere to be found. I'm skipping class.

My happy little pill
I take out my bag. It's filled with different colours and shaped and sizes. It's filled with happiness. I tag out my bag.

Take me away
I swallow one, then another. They bring me somewhere else. Somewhere peaceful. I swallow one, then another.

Dry my eyes, bring color to my skies
I feel it. The pill wipes away my tears. The pill fills my heart again. I feel it.

Tame my hunger
I'm skipping lunch. No longer hungry, no longer starving. My pills replaces the hole in my empty stomach. I'm skipping lunch.

Lie within, numb my skin
I've stopped crying. The drug flows in all my veins. It rids me of all loneliness, all sadness, replacing those emotions with numbness. I've stopped crying.

Hey Internet :) So if you guys recognized it, I based this poem off of Troye's song Happy Little Pill. Even though it was released quite a while ago, it's still one of my favourites. This is not my usual writing style, but you know me, I'm always trying something different! Yes I know that I removed some of the verses, but only because I find it didn't really "go with the flow". I hope you liked it, let me know if you want me to write more poems based off of songs. Anyways, just a quick reminder that I love you, talk to you soon <3
