Diphenhydramine

I TAKE THEM TO STIFLE THE PAIN
TO QUICKEN THE END OF THE DAY
TO STARE BLANKLY AT MY WALLS
WAITING FOR MY EYELIDS TO FALL
FOR MY BODY TO STOP
FOR MY WORRIES TO CLEAR
SO I CAN DREAM OF A WORLD
I DO NOT FEAR
I WANT TO TRAVEL
OUTSIDE THIS DIMENSION
WITHOUT ANXIETY OR APPREHENSION.
I WANT TO HELP EASE MY ANGUISH

WITH THE THOUGHT
THAT IF I SLEEP TILL MORNING
LIFE WON'T SEEM AS ROUGH
AS ROUGH AS THE NIGHT
I ENTERED MY SLEEP
MAYBE THE NEW MORNING
WILL HELP ME TO KEEP
A LITTLE MORE FAITH
AND SOME HOPE FROM WITHIN
THAT I MAY PREVAIL
AND BE CONTENT
WITH THIS WORLD
I LIVE IN.
