Life Through the Eyes of a Patient

Taking my medicine day by day
To keep myself from falling back
To my former self that is wrong to society

My darker secrets hid within
While I make an artificial skin
Made out of the lies ingested in my body
To hide within

And while I take my medicine
I keep from harming
The people in my heart and soul
To give a happy laugh and a smile

But when I don't do what the doctor orders
My life will be destroyed
And when my hidden self reveals
Everything will break and shatter
From the darkness hiding in me

My skin will break
And like a snake
It will shed
Until there is nothing left of me

Although sometimes I want to show
My true and only self
It will only break
The loved ones in my soul
