Let me burn

I can look at myself
Yet it's not me
I grab my meds from the self
Even though they won't fix me
I take them to my room
At least to have some privacy
I hear a slam
I know I'm getting it next
Take the pills my mind tells me
All of them
For now having someone isn't going to help
Saving is not a option for me
I drink them away
The foam comes from my mouth
Yet it feels natural
I can't stay away anymore
My mind can sleep
No more yelling
No more beating
For now I lay in my pool
Soon to burn
