I Took My Meds Today

i took my meds today

to make sure we had a good day

an antidepressant stitched my wounds

so you wouldn’t see them bleed

we ran into an old friend and i smiled like i didn’t know

we were crumbling at my finger tips

i took my meds today

so i could handle it when you told me we were moving too fast

and you weren’t ready for commitment

i flipped the emotions switch to off

and pretend as if it didn’t shatter my heart

i took my meds that day

not knowing what you were going to say but preparing myself

to tell you that i was in love with you

and that you were the first one

i’ve ever trusted with everything
