"I guess I'm back" I smile and joke
Where only before, the anger choked!

 "What did she do?" A feign, a fence
Separating me from the guilt so dense!

I know it was me! My words, my voice
But hate and anger are never my choice

It's not who I am! It's who I become,
When the stress is on and the meds are done!

So I smile and joke and pretend I'm not "her"
But no wall or fence can hold the shame that I bear

No shame for my illness, but the hurt it can cause,
So I medicate, to put the pain on pause!
