Artificial Happiness

That magical high,

Flying up to the sky,

But when it’s time to say bye,

And you are no longer fried,

You feel like you want to die.

 

An evil pill shall kill,

It can be legally filled,

But don’t consume it at will,

It causes a big thrill,

Yet leads to a path downhill.

 

The same link comes from a drink,

You take that sip without a blink,

You’re drunk before you can think,

And the next day goes down the sink.

 

Stay away from that addiction,

This isn’t science fiction,

It will cause many frictions,

 And lead to a lot of contradictions. 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

In loving memory of Anthony LoMonaco, my brother, who died from an overdose on painkillers.
