Youths and Drugs

YOUTHS AND DRUGS
Youths are the nation's pride 
They're the precious treasure 
Spread all over far and wide
Their values beyond measure 

Their minds're fragile as bubble
Characters akin to a wet cement
Easily they jump into trouble
Must act fast, later no lament

Innocence rules them by birth
Environment puzzles the minds
They want happiness and mirth
But some souls simply blinds

Unaware of the consequences
Gets hooked up by addiction
Slowly they lose their defences
Well-wishers turn to benediction

Substances hyptonise his brain 
Controlled by them, he's a robot 
Helplessness is a dreaded pain
Addiction he has already bought

Late, it isn't to get resurrected
From the abyss of drug's hell
Let your life be fully corrected 
And be back to the world, well
