Drugs hard and strong
Enough to lift my heavy spirit!
In The Same breath
Push my health
...
These are words too big to say
Feelings too heavy for one heart
Life's a cross, too much to weigh
But then our way crossed path.
...
I sit back taking in the night
Basking in it's grasp
Eyes closed to moonlight
Savouring the dark
...
War of the head and heart
A relentless battle
The soul caught between and betwixt
Cornered in a vicious circle
...
The price of growth is pain
Which is never cheap
In the word 'Survival'
There's nothing 'sweet'
...
Life
Tired of going through this lonely road again
But it's the only route I know
...
Uncertainties
Life's like being on the run it's hard
To trust anyone, not even myself
...
Letter To Myself
Everytime I talk to you
You hear, but don't listen
...
I have to write before I lose
My last hold on sanity
I'm sorry for the effect of how I was raised
Seeing how it not only affect me.
...
I feel strained and drained
Of every ounce of my aim
Just can't shoot for the stars
I get stuck in clouds of smokes
...
I feel that I am going off track
Losing control of my train
Of thought
So if I die young, in this path
...
Broke and Broken
Left cold, broken and bruised
In the dark hands of the night
...
I understand I can live alone
But do I Wanna die alone?
All this pain every day
I feel its engraved in stone

Drugs hard and strong
Enough to lift my heavy spirit!
In The Same breath
Push my health
Down to it limit
Conquering the mind
With a brute force
Taking over every thought!
Assuming total control
Imprisoning the soul.
What did start
As a friendly fire on pain and boredom
Ongoing as an emotional genocide
On my heart
First I was reluctant
Now I can't resist
Taking blow after blow
With arms down and an open fist
I single handedly handed
My whole self this defeat
It got out of hand
I couldn't take a stand.
Weak against this quick hits
From all this hard drugs
Too soft to reject this loss
Watching as my life
Becomes Drugs chattel
Losing this fight
Failing to realize it's a battle

Take time to make time for your loved ones, before time takes a toll and end up telling tales of the ones you love but lost!
Drugs like Motivational Speakers, the way they lift your spirit up!
You could get the truth raw but you need protection instead!
It feels like the verses from poems and Songs🎶 heals the soul better than the ones Read and preached in religious institutions.
