The Drugs

She got caught up.
in doing what her friends were.
No matter what she didnt care.
Even if it meant abandoning her children.
The foolish excitment.
The foolish pride.
Now the drugs have taken over
the demons that drove her.
She screams in pain,
she screams in rage.
She can not see.
The pain she caused me.
