Living Is Worse Than Death Poem by Moses Samandar

Over medicated
Life is not worth living when you are medicated
I would rather die
Why is life so awful
I want to die
Life is not the same under these medications
Life is not the same!
I am not me
I want to die young
I want to die let me be in peace
I don’t want to live under these circumstances
Just let me be
God take me up in the angels wings
I can’t live without medication
I can’t live with medication
I am trapped
There is no way out!
Someone tell me why?
Someone answer me why?
Somebody tell me why?
My parents cry
My parents don’t trust me
My parents remind me I am trapped
Why I am I trapped lord?
Just take your bullet point it at me and take your best shot
I can’t live
Life is not the same
You don’t understand
I can’t live like this
I am not me
I am a different person
I want to be off this hell
Just let me be
Does anyone have an answer why?
Someone tell me why?
Why can’t I just die – be in peace
Let my suffering end
Let my parents and family to stop suffering
I am going to give up
The doctors don’t leave
They don’t let me die
They don’t let me choose
If I come off medication
They force me on it
This is not real!
They are not helping me!
No-one believes me – not even my parents!
It is not worth living when you don’t have a choice
You are forced
Or suffer
Somebody tell me why?
Please let me die!
Trapped since 16
Now trapped for life!
Please listen to me
Just listen to me!
