No Hope In Dope Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

No Hope In Dope



NO HOPE IN DOPE
Melvin Banggollay

Everyday we hear stories of criminality
Where offenders were dope in drug's fury
From inhalants and injectable as therapy
To relieve their boredom and anxiety
But in many cases leads to many malady.

Many youth of today are dope so heavily
In taking prohibited drugs abusively
like shabu, opium, marijuana and rugby
and many other drugs use by many today
To heal their anxieties and life's misery.

To all drug users, refrain using any
Submit yourself to rehabilitating therapy
While there is still a chance and opportunity
For you to be healed from these malady
For there's no hope in dope in reality.

For those who want to taste its fury
Don't ever attempt in whatsoever way
if you don't want to live a life of misery
and become useless in your family
and lost your mind to behold insanity.

When you have troubles in your family
Or you have lot of life pains and anxiety
Ask God's help by praying fervently
And He will surely heal all your misery
Instead of using any drugs improperly.

Yes, there is no hope in dope, I say
For you'll just lost your mind and body
Even tarnished your pride and dignity
Lost your friends as you'll be in insanity
hence, never indulge in this malady.

Melvin, I appreciate what you're trying to say - using something as a form of escape doesn't bring resolution - but sometimes certain drugs are used as way of self-exploration and not necessarily self-destruction. I agree many people abuse - but lumping everyone together as a total mass of addiction isn't fair.
