Death

to my soup friends. many of you have know me for a long time. long enough to know that i lost some one that i loved dearly. i won't say her name at this late date. but for a wittness to Death i'll say that the person that died yesterday. died the same way my loved one died. the drugs caught up with her. and they took a life of misery. in my case it took a bit longer to find her. but find her they did with empty drug bottles. sitting in a chair. and it is only now that a new message has come from the grave. "If I would stay. I would only be in Your way. So I'll go. But I'll know, that I'll think of you everystep of the way. and i will always love you, I"ll always love you."

Drugs are a terrible, terrible addiction and we see so many hooked on them. It is sad when they can not be helped in any way and we need so much more work done to get it off the streets and out of reach. love phyl
