OPTIMISM

What does it take to heal the pain
Of a broken heart and a shattered dream?
My doctor gave me E.C.T.
And fed me dopamine.

But chemicals don’t heal my soul. They only fog my brain
So I can’t think of goals to plan To give me hope again.

To hell with pills and E.C.T.
I’ll fight my own way out of sorrow, Scorn artificial means to conquer grief,

Make active plans to face tomorrow.
