Slipping Away

Listen to me please she begs do not shut me out Screaming until she no longer has voice to shout Hear me! Please do not discard what I have to say This is important so please do not run away I feel as if I am falling into a deep and empty hole This is taking over corroding my very soul Answers elude me as I search so desperately Peace no longer comes to what is now my reality I’m becoming someone I do not even know I once knew who I was,nothing was just for show Now I do not know the person looking back at me There’s someone there in the mirror I don't want to be This evil substance seems to be in control God help me to climb out of this drug-infested hole Dedicated to a special one who grabbed for help and has now been drug free for sometime~! I am so proud of her.
