Black Poison - A Poem About Drug Abuse

68

By savanahl

A Fate So Sadly "Crystallized"


Piercing memories of faded lives

Erodes your mind through Sleepless Nights

Black poison flows through clouds of smoke

To Satiate and bleed your soul

What sense is left for you to make

How can you from this hell, escape

All foolish thoughts dance scantily

Of life someday from this drug freed

A fairytale you just can't write

The Poison wraps your Hands too tight

All that remains of your spent life

Are pleasures false, diluted lies

A fate so sadly crystallized

Drugs Kill

So many of us are affected by drug abuse, either directly or indirectly. Almost 25% of deaths in America can be attributed to drug abuse. Crystal Meth has become an epidemic across the globe. I've seen first hand the downward spiral affect it has on your life as well as the toll it takes on your health. My thoughts and prayers go out to all those who have fallen victim to this horrible affliction.

Great poem about a scourge of the world.

I was hooked on Cocaine for many years and face a continual day to day battle to stay clean.

Faced many "sleepless nights" and "false pleasures" but with the Lords help I will keep on going.
