No More Higher

On that day he took several oxys It may have been a suicide attempt But he says he needed his fix Numbers of the pills had increased to quench. .. He remembers looking down on his body He ( his spirit self) was a few feet higher from the body There was a string attached to both beings And the string was getting tighter and thinner as his spirit self moved higher He needed to go back to his body He had to make sure the string didn't break He had to fight for his life He had no choice No more higher This scare, Whether it was a hallucination from the drugs Or a reality of his fate Made him turn his life around
