Addiction

There's actually a story behind this one. It's about one of my close friends who used to be a hardcore addict. It just kind of happened by accident, so it's not very good. But here it is.

Addiction.

He used to get high
every day, every hour,
hit the pipes, the needles, and the bowls
and he would hit them hard.

That was his way,
his way of dealing with life.
Life is never easy it seems
but for some it's simply pure hell.

He wasn't a wreck,
but he wasn't okay either,
he was going nowhere fast
the result could have been tragic.

But he took a breath
said I don't need this shit
and started learning to deal
with all that pain.

Everyday he still gets high
but now he's only high on life.

Re: Addiction

Thanks guys. And yeah, he's better. I haven't shown this to him yet. I'm debating showing it to him when he gets back from coaching this summer. Hm.
