Dear Heroin

Dear heroin, wait there's nothing dire about you. The way you take and make a person to where they can't eat or sleep without you. I'm writing you this letter to let you know just how I feel Oh, that it might alone in this cold dark sell these tears that fall are real. You took someone so dear to me, and for you I have built up this hate . For you to fall off the face of this Earth, is a moment in which I can't wait . I love my brother, and his life was ended too soon. Out of all the people in my life, why him did you have to consume ? I can't lie Over the years I've been tempted to try you just to see. But by the grace of God, I avoided you, and you'll never get to me. You taking my friends and family, people I wasn't ready to let go. You took my niece's father, and now her daddy she will never know . Mothers, father's, daughters, and sons . All people we will never get back. But I'm building up an army, and against you we will attack. Even though you're no, I still wish that you could feel. These tears at night we cry are nothing short of real.
