unwell
unwell;
a word I choose to use,
to tell you that
I am suffering.

unwell;
an easier term
for you to digest,
shielded from truth.

lithium,
replenish me.
unburden those
selfless souls,
who try to fix,
who try to care.

there is nothing
you can do.
I will not become
a burden,
I will not let you
suffer too.

unwell;
a phrase to keep them away,
until I get better,
until I am well.
