This poem was written by a young indiana girl who was jailed for drugs. She was eventually released, but true to the drug...It owned her! They found her dead not long after, with the needle still in her arm!
THIS WAS A BIG HELP TO ME WHEN I NEEDED TO BREAK AWAY!! bY MY EXPERIENCE, TAKE IN & LISTEN TO EVERY WORD.IT'S AS TRUE AS THE BIBLE.
My name is Meth
I destroy homes; I tear families apart,
I take your children, and that's just the start.
I'm more costly than diamonds, more precious than gold,the sorrow I bring is a sight to behold.
If you need me, remember I'm easily found.
I live all around you--in schools, & in town.
I live with the rich; I live with the poor.
I live down the street and even next door.
I'm made in a lab--but not the kind you think.
I can be made from under the kitchen sink.
In your childs' closet, & even in the woods,
If this scares you,it certainly should.I have many names, but there's one you know best. I'm sure you've heard of me, my name is crystal meth.
My power is awesome; try me, you'll see. But if you do, you may NEVER break free. Just try me once and I might let you go, but try me twice and I'll own your soul.
When I posses you, you'll steal & you'll lie, you do what you have to, just to get high. The crimes you'll commit for my narcotic charms, will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms, your lungs, your nose.
You'll lie to your mother; you'll steal from your dad. Wehn you see their tears, you should feel sad, but you'll forget your morals & how you were raised, I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways.
I take kids from their parents, & parents from their kids. I turn people from god, & seperate your friends. I'll take everything from you, your looks, your pride, I'll be with you always, right by your side.
You'll give up everything-your family, your home. Your friends , your money, then you'll be all alone. I'll take & take, til you have nothing more to give, when I'm finished with you you'll be lucky to be alive.
If you try me, be warned--this is no game, if given the chance, I'll drive you insane. I'll ravish your body, I'll control your mind, I'll own you completely, your soul will be mine.
The nightmares I'll give youwhile lying in bed, the voices you'll hear, from inside your head. The sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see, I want you to know, these are all gifts from me.
But then it's too late & you'll know in your heart, that you are mine, & we shall not part. You'll regret that you tried me, they always do. But you came to me, not I to you.
You knew this would happen, many times you were told, but you challenged my power, & chose to be bold. You could have said no, & just walked away, if you could live that day over, now what would you say?
I'll be your master; you will be my slave, I'll even go with you when you go to your grave. Now that you have met me, what will you do? Will you try me or not? It's ALL up to you!
I can bring you more misery than words can tell. Come take my hand, let me lead you to HELL.
