Another poem giving an insight into the twilight world of drug addiction
Take a trip round my life,walk a mile inside my shoes,and maybe then you'll realise why these drugs each day i use,take a long hard look around and maybe then you'll see,why my life's the way it is and why drugs have a hold on me.i used to be a normal girl then i discovered crack,and the next 2 decades walked thru life with the devil on my back,he keeps me there imprisoned and the fire's of hell they burn,with each mistake and risk i take a lesson i do learn,one friendly face i long for but strangers all i see,fall on my knees and ask god please to come and rescue me.but still i'm ever lonely even when i'm in a crowd,i hang my head in shame where once i stood up talk and proud,so before you call ya dealer and a life on drugs do choose,take a trip round my life walk a mile inside my shoes.
