Incurable  Mind of vulture's prey tredging terror hill no peace in dawn's ray no heaven in a pill ~ Blind answers offer doves delivers not their song you foolish docs of shrink your philosophy is wrong ~ 'Tis not disfunction of body 'tis remorse of the soul, the mind bears the burden of inescapable hole ~ The illusion of bottles cannot cure the pain chemicals and drugs don't lessen strain ~ Anguish can't be reckoned with when inner love doesn't live each case is it's own hell confusion is all it gives ~ Sorrow isn't simple neither is the solution medication only adds to the heart's pollution ~ Prescriptions cannot rid tribulations of disease subsiding not the past of incurable memories ~ Seeking God's mercy lost spirits ache in need... not false hope of pills else they waste in bleed ~ Depression doesn't digress with the snap of a pill's finger the fractured face of hurt may hide but, cause of woe still lingers ~ Theories, studies and tests of science are good intentions, I agree yet, they never cease affliction with a text book remedy ~ This is the depth depression built, crumble of joy... dreams to silt, miracles unfound weep in wilt erasing not sorrow spilt By Melissa P.

Melissa, So true, and so sad. There is no magical pill that can cure the heart of all its ailments. Only pure and true love can be the only remedy. I hope you will find that soon. Lovely read... Elise |

Thank you both for your comments  but, don't worry it isn't about me! I am just disgusted how doctors always seem to want to describe pills to those who are sick in mind, instead of trying to understand the inner hurt, pills cannot cure the pain~ |

Melissa, I am right there with you girl! I agree, now adays Doctors seem to think there is a cure for everything with a pill...I know from my sister's experience that this doesnt work...it's only the true love of God that can take it all away and make you heal... Love and Hugs Cindi God is our inspiration; Words of the heart can be music to our ears |
