Any Drugs?

snuck out at 230 am
got some rum
some smokes
dark sky, warm air
not enough never enough
dont want her to smell me
sneaking is part of the high
not too much resistance
drove to the crack house
smoked some up
not feeling that well
pain in the arm
down my chest
sweating
home
she's waiting
shes not stupid
no no no ambulance
she made me get in the car
now
I'm scared
right now she doesn't know but she knows
how many times I deceived her and soon
drug tox doesnt lie
yes
yes 
he's having a heart attack
did you take any drugs
bright lights
voices
any drugs?
any drugs
(are these the last words I will hear?)
No

I am sure that would be a scary situation. That is happening so much in America today. Keep writing. Sara
