Face off with life


Doctor told
You are allergic to drugs.
A minute quantity can stop your heart.
I trusted him.

I swallowed four tablets.
To have and to allow peace.
Breathing was heavy.
My head was whirling 
Words were broken.
The eyes were half-closed.
I was happy.

Then, I vomited.
Fuck !
Death didn't kiss my heart.
Pain left.
Don't trust the doctor.
Sometimes they, too, are brutes.
