A Reality Unreal

Stuck it seems in this bottomless pit
     Her life through the eye end of a needle
     What's now become a life time habbit
      For which she'd do anything even steal
      
       But l don't understand ;as l don't do it
        So could not know how she dose feel
        When she tells me that she's lost her hit
        Because it's now started to conjeal
   
         Though at times l would have to admit
        I don't blame her as much those that deal
          I only wish there would be a day she'd quit
          As even now this reality that seems so unreal


          A part two prequal to poem A STARK REALITY
            About a friend ex though l could blame government l
    Letting this go on for so long

All we can do is try to understand it, then maybe we can help them stop...

Laura Breidenthal Date: 12/6/2022 12:31:00 PM That sounds like a frustrating circumstance to be in David. I have a brother who is addicted to drugs and it is heartbreaking to see him this way. “ But l don't understand ;as l don't do it” looking in from the outside , yes, it is difficult to understand for sure! Always, Laura Login to Reply David Scott Date: 3/2/2023 10:04:00 AM yes this was written same time as a stark reality which reads much better it is hard has been for quite sometime like others got a lot of poems want to update just so many other things going on as well as unforeseen pandemic feels weird typing as so used of touch screen how ever i shell return hope you are well dear poet xxx
