You came

You found me lonely

You became a friend

You came when I was at

My lowest

I was shy and afraid to face

The world

But you put that on hold

You took my fear 

And placed energy to cheer

The world

But I can’t bear the pain

You’re causing me 

Every time I  shoot you in

My system

You came with different names 

Xanax, Coke, Crystal

But still turned out to be the same parasite,

That’s tearing down my system

Now I’m lying in a hospital bed,

Praying that I make it.

I say drugs no more.
