Drugged

So I decided to start out with a poem that I forgot I wrote:)
It's kind of a weird one, lol.


------------------


The pill is a lie.
The minute blue capsule slides down my throat.
There, I've done it.


Driving along the forest's edge,
The woods whisper their joys to me.
Stopping the car, I climb out
Mesmerized by their deep tranquility.
The braches beckon me
With a soothing toss of their leaves,
But my feet remain motionless.
Vines crawl out of the depths,
Creeping over my feet
They envelop my legs,
And inch their way up my torso.
Tendrils branch out,
Slowly taking over my arms
As yet more converge on my neck.
They wrap themselves tenderly around my brain
And take control of my senses.
I close my eyes and give in,
Trying to relax and make it painless.


Some while later, I wake up
In my own bed, the afternoon sunlight
Warm on my legs.
