Premiere Contest WinnerYou Must Choose Life

I hate drugs especially Meth
It causes hell, can cause your death.
Makes you feel like someone new...
there is nothing that you can't do...
made me feel pretty, so sexy and thin
no more outcast, I fit right in.
Meth is clever
Meth is quick
You'll feel great before getting sick
All the while you're getting erased,
the meth taking over you're soon replaced.
It will delete all you hold dear
erase your family steal your career.
Deep inside meth works its magic
in your system wreaking havoc.
Your lungs, your heart, your hair and skin
meth changes you from within.
It takes your spirit, crushes the soul
Makes sure without it you won't feel whole.
Meth changes the way you think,
You're so thirsty but won't take a drink.
You don't see this big decline,
 meth has done it, you're mentally blind.
Should you ever try to leave..
Meth will make it hard to breathe!
You'll feel like you can not try
It's to hard to say goodbye
Only God can help you get away
He'll take the lead if you'll pray
He'll help you off this road to death
But you must choose life 
instead of meth

You should write poetry and not a speech. It is a speech
