The Beautiful Pharmaceutical

The Beautiful Pharmaceutical

You chill me out and help me sleep when I've been up all weekend and had nothing to eat

It's my love of amphetamines that has caused all the problems

You're the perfect antidote to that horrible poison

I must obtain you illegally without a prescription

I suppose you too have become an addiction 

But you're so cute, little round and blue

My girlfriend would be jealous if she knew my true feelings for you 

You lift me up and turn my emotions around when the working week has got me down

You are in so many ways so special to me

You are like sweet nectar to a honey bee

If people knew they'd say you'd become an obsession

But what do they know? You slow things down, give me clarity and direction

Somehow you have the power to change what's inside of me

It must be your added helpings of anti anxiety

Over these past few months you've helped me in so many ways

Like when I was in Amsterdam, those were the days

Coming down off the acid

Remembering who I am. I owe it all to you

My beloved valium

Great verse. Too true our lives can become so inextricably entwined with things that empower us emotionally and physically, though in the long term they may not be the best thing for us. Well written poem. Thanks.

Hi David, no thankfully I can't get hold of any of those. I'm not too bad these days. The drug that has done me the most harm from all the years is the legal one...alcohol. Good for you for getting sober - Syd
