THE ADDICT

Times Read: 537
The windows are covered
I hear a knock at the door
I just zipped up the baggie
You can’t have any more!
I knew someone was watching.
Spying on me today
They are always outside waiting
Am I going to jail? No way!
Yesterday is my today
Ive been up for days and weeks
Food is nothing special
I can’t even eat
Ive lost 20 pounds or so
It’s only been a few weeks
I needed to diet anyway
I was looking like such a lump
People at work don’t know I use
Hell, it’s only enough to get by
I sneak off in the bathroom
Sometimes I even cry
I used to have a home
Now I live on the street
I’m trying to get my car fixed
I sold my engine for money last week
The phone rings off the hook
It’s that dealer again
He’s got an ounce of goodies
Dam I want some too
Id give anything to score a batch
Then sell it to have my own.
Id have drugs at my beck and call
Yet, I have no freaking home?
What happened to my friends from school?
Did they give up on me so soon?
Oh, I didn’t call them
No wonder I’m alone in this room
I don’t know why I do this
It calls my name each day
The meth monster loves me
At least someone does I pray
I sit upon the bathroom counter
Eight hours-yes while doing lines
I’m completely in the zone
It doesn’t matter where I am
I can do drugs anywhere
No one ever notices
No one ever cares
Ive given up myself
The police would rather put me in jail
Than give me desperate help
I called one day for a bed date
Down at the counciling center
As always the wait was six months away
What do u think I am, a mentor?
How the hell can I wait that long?
I know that ill still be high
Doing drugs-getting by
This horror of my life
Each day goes by and I have no idea
If the next day will come
I am simply not myself
What have I become?
I used to care about my dreams
I used to be able to love
But nothing means more to me now
Except my next baggie of drugs
I see in the mirror
What I used to despise
Obsessive compulsion has embedded itself
In the core of my gut it seems
I constantly move
I can’t stop talking
Paranoia and hallucinations
They both live inside my head
They are my voice
I see visions in my head
Last week I got some cocaine
It made up for the meth I couldn’t find
If it’s not one drug its another
I do that all the time
I’m depressed at times
I know I am
My friend meth has many names
But she’s all one thing to me
Meth is the destruction of my core
This person I have to be
I can’t get away
Ive tried before
They say I have to hit rock bottom
But what the hell am I living in now?
A mansion? I think not
This is rotten
Chasing the dragon
Smoke so soothing
Rotting my lungs away
Teeth r rotting
I can’t afford a dentist
Would I go anyway?
I remember once I had great goals
Although what they were is a secret to me
Ive all but forgotten the life and mind I had
Some people would say I have chosen this life
But I so badly beg to differ
I wish I was clean
I wish I didn’t need her so bad
I wish I could break free from this pattern
It’s hard when nothing seems to matter
Life is so disgusting at times
So much pain and grief out there
I guess living with myself
It’s my way
My burden
Life of an addict isn’t that great
No life, No home, No fun
This isn’t what I wanted to become
I’m slowly dying
If not already
All I wanted was to be a great person
I hate it
I hate life
I hate me.
ADDICTION

Why Can't I stop? How come I'm so weak?
My whole life evolves around me wanting to tweek.
I know what it does to me, I know what it causes,
I sit there and smoke it and my heart and brain pauses.
Right when I smoke it, or get a straw to do a line, it enters my system
and makes me feel divine.
My heart starts to beat about a thousand times faster.
My mouth feels as if it has a coating of plaster.
This life brings me so much agony and pain.
It takes a hold of me heavy as a ball and chain.
So why do I continue? I just keep on going, My life away I'm throwing,
my problems just keep growing.
I guess that I"ll learn from the mistakes that I make.
I guess I'll pay for them with each breath that I take.
Each time I Smoke Shit it draws closer to the end,
and I'll die sad and lonely with addiction my only friend.
I know I Promised...

I know I promised you this time I was done,
not even 2 days later, I was on another dope run.
I wish you guys could just sit and see,
how this drug has total power over me.
I hope you guys understand,
I never wanted to be the way that I am.
I pray that one day I'll be set free,
from this drug that won't let me be me.
I don't think anyone will be able to make me stop,
not even the fucking cops.
When I got married, the pastor should of said:
"Do you take crystal meth, until you are dead."
Why Girls Don't Pee Alone

Hiding in the bathroom, smoking our secret stash.
Pass the pipe back and forth; together we gossip and laugh.
You're talking nonstop and trying to do your hair.
I decide to tweeze my brows; we're quite a crazy pair!
Pack it again -- oops! I can't believe I spilled!
On our hands and knees; the pipe must be filled.
Shh! Quiet with that Bic. Do you think the others hear?
Do they know what we're doing? Are they listening at the door?
Finally we emerge, although I could barely tear
Myself from my bleeding brows or you from your hair.
Sitting in a huddle, Matt is playing with wires.
Rob is fixing something again with string, tape and pliers.
David is still working on his plastic tina bong.
Glue gun in hand he says,"Now it won't be too long."
Hours and hours later the bong still isn't done,
But you and I don't mind; we‚ve been having too much fun
Drawing pages of butterflies with pretty glitter pens
And making pointless lists that never seem to end.
Finally David is finished and the bong can be passed
After adding some large shards. Man, an eight-ball sure goes fast!
Suck in the smoke and then glance around.
If no one's looking, sneak a second and breathe out a huge cloud.
Back to our projects, but your eyes begin to twinkle.
A wink and we both head to the toilet to "tinkle."
This time two lines, but turn the water on
To hide any sounds. Sniff and snort -- they're quickly gone.
It's Saturday night; why not clubs, dancing or drinking?
Because we'd rather sit till the sun comes up, tweeking and stinking!
THE DOPE'S SIDE #3

Hello, my friends, I have arrived, to talk to you alone,
If you're really smart, you'll not allow me in your home.
I'll tell you I'm the final friend that you'll meet here today,
so just sit back and listen to what I have to say.
If you really like me, and most people will agree,
you'll find out that I'm not cheap, nothing is for free.
I'll charge you for my friendship, though my friendship is not real.
But you will choose to keep me around because of how I make you feel.
At first I'll bring into your life all that makes you feel just great
but by the time I'm done with you, it may be way to late.
I am made of household things, though it takes a little while.
But when I'm done I'm sure you'll think that I'm well worth the while.
Before I tell you more of me, do you have a piece of glass?
This is where I like to lie, before I kick your ass.
Some people like to burn me, they say they like the smell.
The feelings that I'll make you feel, will make you wish I'd go to hell.
It takes a while for most to see the destruction that I do,
but only one can stop me, and that person would be you.
And if you think I'll go away like an empty bag,
think again, you'll use me until you feel like an old rag.
First I want to take from you, all that you've worked for,
even then I don't believe that I'll have evened up the score.
The points will be on my side, my plan will not be foiled,
you users use me, until you're really spoiled.
I'll take more than you have got, as you look around you'll see.
Your home, your life, your very soul still I won't set you free.
Once I have taken all that you've got, I'm not finished yet, you see.
I'll take the ones that you love most, even they won't run from me.
You'll be lucky if you are left with a roof above your head.
You see I might just stick around until I see you dead.
And if all the things I take from you don't mean enough to you to know,
I'll stay with you forever, until you can't make me go.
I have not a soul or a heart, at times I'm cold as ice.
You'd be REALLY stupid to think I might be nice.
So, you see you're not immune to all I have to give.
And if you don't abuse me, I might just let you live.
But, by the time I'm finished, YOU'LL have wished upon ME death,
and on my lonely tombstone, just put my name is "Meth"
My Heart

My heart beating, fed by an
Elusive illusion of happiness;
Which, being temporary, is still
More than I know, enough
To deceive my soul.
All the while my brain is
Screaming, flailing like a
dying fish.
Rotting from within the empty
cavern digested itself in anticipation
of a simple transmission
of energy, of life that cannot live
unless chemically charged.
The suffocating fish, confused,
hides behind the curtain
draped across my eyes.
I cannot see the vast damage.
Reality crumbling ∑ With a flick
Of a light, pain dissipates;
relaxes as a thick fog of deception
carefully breezes by;
satiating the cavern with a dim glow.
