Serotonin
I stopped taking my anti depressants
For like, two days
And my heart started to sink
And hasn’t stopped
Until I just about drop onto the floor
And feel like dying.
I hope I remember how this feels
For the rest of my life
As proof that I do not
Naturally have enough serotonin
To survive.
Damn I can’t believe I used to do this
All the time, even without
HRT.
I guess that’s the power of music and poetry.
