Heal, damn you

Heal, damn you

By jfarrell

 

It is 7 weeks before my 50th birthday

And I just want my depression gone. Forever;

This illness’, this ‘condition’; this curse;

Heal, damn you! Let it go.

 

After 38 years, you’d think it’d be cured by now;

All the money and time spent in therapy;

Or I’d have learned to accept it;

Heal, damn you! I need to live.

 

With no cure, I grow very old, alone,

Living off tea and biscuits because it’s all I can afford;

Who’d want that?

Heal, damn you! Don’t condemn me to that.
