The White Room (Free verse) by thepinkbunnyofdoom
In the white room
With black curtains
Here our fates are certain
They'll pump us with drugs
And kiss us with hugs
Saying how much they miss us
They say I'm not in my right mind
So I assume I'm in the left one
Speaking of leaving
Hows that treating you?
They say these white rooms
Will fix us, so am I broken
Because these white walls
Make me crazy?
Tell me of chairs
Without straps to clutch you
And windows that break,
When you throw chairs at them
Tell me of colors
They don't coat pills,
Mine are red and yellow,
I love your sleeves
Mine are too long
They tie them behind me
Can you imagine?
Someone told them I'm crazy
They say I'm broken
And they want to fix me
By putting me in rooms that make me crazy
Drowning me in sedatives
To keep me thinking dizzy
You still haven't answered my question
I asked how leaving was treating you
You come here once a month
For one hour and leave
And your not crazy
So doctor, in your honest opinion
How long do you think
Before these white walls
Won't make me crazy?
