I take a hit.
My body warms,
I feel elated.
I crave you.
I need you.

It starts to hurt.
Friends judge.
They reason.
I quit you.

I relapse.
Again I am elated.
I crave you.
I need you.

Regret.
Guilt.
Pain.
Cries.

I take another hit.
I am addicted.
No one suspects.
I hide you.
I crave you.
I need you.

You hurt me.
Regret.
Guilt.
Pain.
Cries.

No reason.
No certainty.
Secret comfort.
Temporary euphoria.
I need help.
Your love is my drug.
White powder
NO
its definitally not Flour

Clear bitter liquid
NO
It's definitally not water

Needle after needle
NO
Its definitally not a doctor's shot

All these addictions
All these Drugs
Swirlled around me

But I didnt touch them
I kept away
I had my own

Little White pills
NO
they aren't my ADHD medicine

Swallow them
Snort them
Take me away

Blissful numbness
To zoned out to think
Perfect sanctuary

The high
I could Fly
I was invincible

The Crash
the reality came back
with a harsh flash

Needing more pills
to keep the high strong
More and more

More
more
more

Suddenly
They are gone
Leaving me to my own Devices

My stomach turns agaisnt its self
Can't keep anything down
Twisting painfulling in knots

A Cold sweat breaks
Shaking so hard
can't think straight

I need them
I need them
I need them

Pray for death
Pray for pills
Pray for this to end

I need them
I need them
I need them

"oh she has the flu"
Stupid doctor
what do you know?

can't you see
my desprete need
My need for those little white pills

I
Need
THEM

Months go by
feels like eons
feels like I'm in hell

Without them I am plauged
by horror and pain
depression peaking

Slowly my body heals
My need dims
My need disapates

5
years
go by

Addiction no more
Dependent no more
Little pill free

But every now and then
I feel that itch
just below my skin

the itch for a pill
for the numbness it brings
Every now and then

No matter how sober
I will always be recovering

Because when you were addicted to pain meds
It's hard not to relapse
Yes I use to be addicted to Oxy when I was fourteen turning fifteen. I never told anyone. I never went to rehab, I was forsed into recovery when my friend whose pills I stole cut me out of his life becuase of his own additcion to Coke, Never knowing he was saving my life in the process. Hawk <3
Damaged beyond repair
a body without a soul
Scar riddled body
A heart turned to stone

A past to Horrid
for sanity to hold
A future so bleak
no hope can grow

No matter the terror
no matter the pain
He goes on
Pushing through the darkness

Loyalty is his Motto
No matter the cost
He is there
like a silent shadow
To someone So Dear to me. He is my big brother in ever since of the word. Even though we are not Blood. Our relationship is strong then Blood.
Here I stand in front of the mirror
my reflection staring back at me

and this is what we say to each other.


look at you your so fat
STOP THAT NO I'M NOT
well honey you're getting there

And look at your legs
WHAT ABOUT THEM
They are so scar riddled no one could truly love you


and just LOOK at THAT face
WHAT ABOUT MY ******* FACE *****
its so ugly they could use it at the circus for a side show to scare little children
SHUT UP
Oh come on you know its true

You are pathetic and stupid
Your friends dont care about you

I put my hands over my ears and close my eyes
PLEASE STOP
I whimper

No one would care if you died
you'd be doing every one a favor
Snicker

SHUT UP
SHUT UP
SHUT UP

My eyes snap open
I lift my hand and punch the mirror
my reflection shattering in a thousand sparkling peices
and with it my demons

I am DONE destroying myself
I will start Anew
This is my new begining
Stick around
I hope you like the Veiw

— The End —
