Picked
Her up
Yesterday
Afternoon and
Brought her home. She’s been
Doing so much better.
Went to the tattoo parlor
And she got a spech designed
Tatt just for her drawing on her leg, to
Remind her that she has more to live for,
She is eating and joking around, just
Like old times. It is so nice to hear
Her laughter ringing out and
To see her smiling once
Again. To see her eat
A full meal without
Leaving a crumb on
Plate sets my
Mind at
Ease.
*******************************************************
She’s home
from the hospital
and doing
so much
better.
*
Making me
so happy.
*******************************************************
No lingering
problems
are showing
*
but she has
a long road
to recovery
Ahead
*******************************************************
In therapy,
she realized
she didn’t
want to die;
*
she just wanted
to sleep
*******************************************************
To remind
her that she
has more
to live for
*
she got a
Tattoo
*******************************************************
The tattoo
is a poison
bottle of
pink pills
*
and a Benadryl
name tag
*******************************************************
The tattoo
represents
the Benadryl
pills she took
*
to try to
end her pain
*******************************************************
The poison symbol
represents how
Over-the-counter
drugs can be toxic
*
if mishandled
and misused.
*******************************************************
She says
she knows
she fucked up,
*
but she will
never
do it
Again
*******************************************************
She will continue
with her many
therapy
sessions
*
and to take her
mood-stabilizing
Pills
*******************************************************
Thank you
for your prayers
and good
thoughts
*
while
she was in
the hospital
