Feb 2013
lights flutter.
hearts ache.
her eyes water.
razor blades
and needles
fill her life.
sleep all day,
up all night.
her heart pounds
with the adrenalin
rush of her new
love.
flowers in the
freezer and
drugs on the mirror,
she was once so
beautiful.
now they have
invaded her life
and have shown
her all new
adventures to
explore
new worlds.
bad habits.
they'll be the
death of her.
time slowly
ticks on by;
one,
two,
three.
the love of the
needle has
entered her veins.
it lay on the
desk beside her
until she can
feel no more.
death has come
near, her heart
begins to stop.
tears flow,
blood runs.
time stops.
she was interlocked
into the love
of the needle
and the monster
inside.
