Sad Poem on Addiction

a life that's wasted
a breath that's gone
he knows he's been fighting this addiction too long

he says he's sorry
he says he'll try
he thinks of a prayer and looks up to the sky

It hurts so much, he just can't stop
he shoots the drugs until he drops

he drops his hopes
he drops his spirit
his soul cries out, you just can't hear it

a life that's wasted
a breath that's gone
the results of heroin
he just couldn't move on

he slowly lets go
he slowly is dying
he takes his last breaths
and quickly starts crying

his life is gone now, wasted away
the day his life ends, today is the day
