Influenced. Having no self control. Being weak. Being a follower. Influential. Being the cause. The reason. The motivator. Waste. Once you're influenced, you become hooked. Your life becomes a game. A game to find more to fill your craving. To get your fix. You'd do ANYTHING to be the winner- every single time you play it. Failure. Not coming to the realization quick enough. Not seeing all the debt you're causing. The pain you're causing others-what you're doing to them. Ignoring. Not paying any mind to the people who are trying to help you- open your eyes and help you. Pretending everything is okay. Thinking you're right when you know **** well you're not. Realization. Unfortunately, by the time you get to this stage- it might be too late. Not only did you lose the ones you love who loved you- you lost yourself, who you used to be. You always told me that I was "born original" and not to "die a copy". When are you going to start taking your own advice?..

Don't die a copy
