Little girl
with sad brown eyes
Please come closer
and tell me why?

Let me try to ease
your mind
Pain and sarrow
in your soul
depression
you can't control.

Yes I know I can ease
your mind

Take this pill
You will unwind

It will make you happy
all the time

I will numb your mind
and make you blind
to realities
you wish not
to see

Hmmm - Interesting.

I wonder. No reflection on your poem, which is well done, but I have to wonder what you all think about society's propensity toward curing with a pill?

Peace,

Christopher

I really like this, and I understand.  I wrote a song called Little Girl once.  Different theme, but the title is what intrigued me.
