JUNKIE

I look at the world and I see so many wasted lives.

I feel a rage well inside me.

The rage is only there to remind me of the

reality of pain of living the life.

I see them every day, living their complicated

lives like cock roaches in a giant maze looking for way out.

Looking for victory, knowing only defeat.

slipping into dark Insanity.

Hiding in all the dark places, walking in the shadows.

Looking for that next ride into oblivion, into Heaven.

Feeling the pleasure and then pain, as they descend into

that dark space between living and dying.

The empty shell that walks soulless, a stark gaunt image of

life and death itself.

Completing the circle

Looking for that next ride into oblivion, into Heaven.

Feeling the pleasure and then pain, as they descend into

that dark space between living and dying again.

The life of a junkie.......................A life in hell.
