Will Karry Poet I do not know?

Another Unsolved Crime

The hunger she’s been feeding 
Never gets satisfied 
Even when she adds it all up
Then divides and multiplies 
Another needle track 
Another sigh of content 
Another night on the street 
To pay her habit and rent 
What started out so simple 
Somehow took a different turn 
She’s living this lie alone 
While other bridges burn  
Her family, they wouldn‘t understand 
She says as she walks her turf  
And thinks of another great fix 
And what it would be worth 
The millions of wonderful colors 
That stream through her mind 
And the satisfaction it brings 
Is something that’s easy to find 
Her friends are on the streets 
Smiling as she passes by 
Her money buys the good stuff 
No longer does she cry 
The hunger she’s been feeding 
Took a nose dive one last time 
No witnesses to be found 
Just another unsolved crime
