Valium Daze

Valium Daze
----------------
Two days have passed now
Two long days
They are history but I remember every second
Every scary, painful second
My now fuzzed brain battles to stay sane
And my body inflicts pain not felt before
Nausea
Palpitations, sweats and shakes
The fight continues
Each tick of the clock
Is a sonic Big Ben boom
I cannot speak
Nor function
I am agoraphobic
Acrophobic
Claustrophobic
Every thing bloody phobic
The sweat on my brow runs
Into my tight eyes
And past my dry and cracked mouth
And I shiver
For there are no more pills left
To take away this pain
I must call my doctor
But the effort is too much
A Faustian deal
For just one small green tablet
That will help me to see, to speak, to sleep, to live
Like normal people live
As my body fights the chemicals
The brain must win but for how long
Must I suffer this living death?;
