Did You Take A Pill Today

He found himself peering into an empty room
His eyes darted to the left and to the right
Completely unaware of where he now stood
Heart pounding with uncertainty and fright.
 
He screamed and asked, 'Is anyone here'!?
But only the darkness seemed to reply
Until he heard these words that were spoken
'Breathe deep or you shall surely die'!
 
He struggled as he attempted to alleviate the pain
Deep breath, after breath, after breath
But it failed to remove him from the scary dark room
He feared his heart would tear loose from his chest.
 
Then the voice began speaking, only louder this time
Tormenting and causing him panic
'Do you really believe you can cope with the fact'
'That you have now become a little bit manic'!
 
He tried not to listen and give in to the voice
But it seemed there was no where to hide
And the longer he froze in this room all alone
The more terrifying became the unwanted ride.
 
Trembling and feeling as though time had stopped
He couldn't move and became rigidly still
Then all at once a cabinet door swung open
And the voice said,  'You'd better take your pill'!
 
Someone reached out to help guide his hand
Till he now stared at the little white pills
He knew when he took them his fear would subside
And once again his thoughts would be still.
