Think Of People Who Care

Think of all the money wasted
Just so you can get high
Think of the people who care
They keep on asking why

Had you ever stopped to think
Where has the time gone
While life was passing you by
You closed out everyone

Addiction screws your psyche
Messes with your brain
As you cast loved ones aside
The dark side you remain

It should give you time to think
Whilst inside jail you sit
Remember friends and family
All hope and pray you quit

My aunt has had diabetes since she was a child. She never let anything put her down. She was very smart and a great actress not to mention beautiful. Then she got into drugs and drinking and at the age of thirty she had to get a kidney transplant and a pancreas transplant. She wrecked her bodies ability to function; the diabetes had taken its toll as well the drugs. Even after all of the surgery she still drinks and does drugs.... I just wonder when she will realize life is worth stopping.
