    Heroin

    Artificial pinpoint eyes
    Plastic feelings
    Snort another line of self confidence
    It’s funny how each lie becomes more ridiculously entwined
    Living life one fade to the next
    Collapsed veins trying to hold on…..to something
    You can’t even look into a mirror
    Afraid of what you’ll see
    Enjoying a high that has destroyed and ended many a life
    Your sickness outweighs you
    Your selfishness overtakes you
    The most addictive substance on this planet,
    More addictive than cigarettes
    More addictive than alcohol
    An uphill battle that seems too steep to climb
    Once you have crossed that line
    It seems like everything is in black and white
    Life lacks substance
    Lacks color
    The battle must continue to be fought
    For death is eminent
    And giving up is much too easy
    There is help
    Faith will show you this
    The color will return
    Along with strength
    Rebuild………….
    One prayer at a time

    Absolutely. The words of Maya Angelo come to mind, And still I rise.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
