Notes About The Poem

ADDICTION is a horrible disease. ADDICTION is hard to deal with and treat on your own. ADDICTION can be overcome, ASK for help. 

A Toxic Friend That Kills My Will

You let go of my hand,
On a cobblestone road,
Into the strangest land.

Curiosity, it drove me to do,
All the things,
That I decided to.

I was left alone, but tried to refrain,
To taste your poison,
That fed my vein.

No one could save me,
The needle happily accepted my pain,
It knew I was desperate to just be.

Tomorrow I will try again,
Walking cobblestone roads,
Where my childhood began.

If I should die before then, 
I ask God to forgive me,
And all the others who have been,

Walking cobblestone roads,
Looking for,
A long lost friend.
