"I'll be okay."

Is what you want me to say

But when i say the truth

You greedy bastards devour the proof

"It will be okay."

Teachers spit their disgusting pity in my face

When i write what i cannot say

They hold it to my face

And tell me to stop acting this way

They send me to counsellors

Who all say the same

"I think it will be best if you went away."

Away

to a place with white and grey walls

With beds that reek of shame

And the nurses are all the same

"You have a problem and i think i can help."

the doctors always look pathetic

In their well pressed slacks

Button up shirts

With ties that i despise

Give me pills

Just give me pills

It's what i need

Not to get away from this this horrid family

Make me numb, doc

I don't want to feel

I don't want to remember the truth

My mother keeps buried within empty "i love yous."

I have had enough

Of the memories flooding me

So, doc, you say you can help me

And i don't know if that is true

But have you ever considered

Physician assistant suicide too?
