"No boy is worth crying over, and the one who is won't make you cry."


I know I need help
I hear it all the time,
But I can't give them up -
Those babies are mine.

Those sweet little things
That take me away -
Those sweet little things
Love me every single day.

And those little things
That love me so dear,
Have been there for me
For almost a year.

I keep them with me
During day and at night
So I have them close
After every little fight.

The fights that are bad
And when I need help
I go to the box
And get me some help.

Give me some water
And a couple pops here
Then a couple over there
So we'll see no more tears.

After they're in
And they've given a kick,
I might give a little more -
That'll do the trick.

So don't tell me no
And don't tell me to stop.
'Cause I love these babies -
They're all I've got.


The author's comments:
I became clinically depressed after an awful break up in September 2010 and I became addicted to pills after that. It started when the relationship was going downhill, months before the break up, and I started taking them then. I have used them as an 'out' ever since, and I decided to write about it.
