She Calls

She serenades mind body and soul
and she will not let go
shades of blue and sea foam green
she is not what she seems
with the pull of power
within  her ebb and flow
she grabs the human soul
answers get lost on waves
as the body craves
dangerous, beautiful,cold
she latches on so bold
shades of blue and sea foam green
see is not what she seems
stormy temper will boil in rage
all who wish to engage.

Everyday alcoholics and druggies die. They think their safe until they cross that invisible line. It's so sad that we can't help them. Thus my daughter did die.

G'day Phyllis … not sure if it's an illness or a power game, but she certainly draws the gullible to her - thanks Phyllis - Lindsay

Captivated by her allure, many are her victims; once caught under her spell, it is not easy to escape her clutches, both psychologically and physically. The 'victims' need help and understanding. ~ Regard & Hugs // paul

Thanks Paul and yes addiction can do much. Now that pot is available to everyone over 18 makes me wonder if we will have a lot of problem with addictions besides other drugs, alcohol and smoking. love phyl
