    This is my latest written word that sort of expresses some shit im going through right now....


    --Vodka-Valium Cocktail Party--

    I don't want you to go back
    so come with me instead
    we wont listen to those voices
    screaming in your head.
    i dont understand your crying
    or those pills you take at night
    the proffessionals say you need them
    but youve shown me theyre not right.
    cause ive seen the better side of you
    the one they dont see
    away from the charts and "games"
    when its only you and me.
    you say you cant go back
    but they come and take you away
    you say you try and stop them
    but they do it anyway.
    they think they know whats best for you.
    why dont you trust inside?
    you let them tell you how to feel
    ...so obvious you try to hide.
    the machines may analyze you
    with all the tests they do
    but so much shit in such short time
    id be suffering too.
    come be with me again tonight
    I'll kiss your deepest scar
    I dont need a fucking nametag
    to show you who you are.
    We'll burn the machines to the ground
    and tonight you sleep at home
    and the doctor you just met today
    can play his "games" alone.

    Shes a girl i met a while ago who has been through a lot of shit in her life. I really like her, she is so awesome and just... great. But she has to go to the advocacy centers and all this shit all the time for their so called "therepy". I know she hates it, and it just keeps making her remember all the stuff shes dealt with and it drives her nuts. Then it makes her feel worse, so they diagnose her and analyze her and say she isnt getting any better so they recommend more sessions and more treatments and more medication. The thing i find funny about it all is she goes in to a doctor who she has only met that day. The doctor only knows about her what he reads in her record and charts, and without even knowing her as she really is, and not even seeing her outside of the sessions somehow manages to "diagnose" what is at the root of her problem. Sometimes i feel like im the only one who sees the vicious circle it has all become.


    The reason I named this poem "Vodka-Valium Cocktail Party" is because it all reverts back to an attempted suicide that happened years ago, in case anyone was wandering about that.
