No Friend

I found in you the mother I never had. You were the only one there when I lost my dad. Always there when I needed you. Not far when I wanted you too. It was from you that I got courage when I had none. It was you who pushed back my tears and let me have fun. Twenty four seven you were with me. Happy or sad you just let me be. But in reality, you were really no friend. And I face six years of running, it's got to end. I must push you out and far, far away. I can no longer rely on you~not even one more day. Back to the light, the real world I walk. All the years of avoided emotions to deal with in bulk. You're not my family! You're the enemy! No friend! You took six years and all it contained without amend! You were all consuming~the loyalist I've ever seen. But go far away, get out of me! METHAMPHETAMINE!
