Sertraline

 

Medication?
More like calcification.

The myopic solution;
Replacing anxiety
With apathy.

Losing focus,
Focusing
On what I have lost.

My thoughts,
Circle the drain.
Both hope and fear
Falling in turn.

I am lost.
A rudderless raft,
Left to drift
Upon a dead calm lake.

Fog obscures the bank.
Fog obscures desire.

I am far too calm
To stay safe.
Life and death
Seem equally desirable.

I drift.
Cold rationality;
The last remaining
Life preserver.

The small subtle voice
Whispering
That this too shall pass;
The sun will shine,
The wind will blow,
And I will have purpose once more.
