Falsity

The pills have multiplied in disgusting numbers,
My thoughts remain the same as before.
The words coming out of my mouth are traitorous,
They conceal my pain, and fill my emptiness.

Pills cannot bring back the past,
My heart is yearning for it.
The tears and agony are quieter,
But my heart is still on the floor.
They see it, passing by,
Making no move to pick it up.

Pills cannot give you the gift of joy,
Falsity is obvious, and the tears are still there.
Loved ones' compliments tear my soul apart,
Knowing they don't know why I lock myself away.

Pills are just chemicals, that promise you a better life,
But they're all I have, so I'll believe in falsity.
