Drugs

I call you my friend, my family says you are not, they said, just look around you, see what you have got. You took my family, and turned them against me, they don't understand at all, I'm gone alot, I don't even call. I had a job, one of the best, but now that is gone to, my family says, it's all your fault, and I can blame you. My kids are ashamed of me, I can see it in their eyes, they say their friends make fun of me, they wish, that they could hide. I don't have the desire to do anything but sleep, my mom is a wreck, all she can do is weep. Now I'm looking back, at the life from me you took, I will go tomorrow, and try, and escape your hook. If I had been smart, you would never have gotten hold of me, but I wasn't, and this you can plainly see. Well, this is good by, I'm kicking you out, you really have to leave, and if you come back here, ever again, you will deal with the police. If you have a problem, please seek help.
