No Prescription Needed

I used to have reasons for staying
and those I didn't have, I made,
fighting the dying with all my might
but the loss of you was the fatal blade.

So I figure I can either stay here dead
or go get my jump-start kit,
and zap my life with a drastic change,
a last resort when the heart has quit.

To change everything, inside and out,
new people, new job, new house, new state,
to start the whole thing over again
lays out avenues to contemplate.

They say laughter is the best medicene...
but change saves lives after laughter's depleted
a jump-start for the heart...
no prescription needed.
