No use for your weak disguise.
Your arms show the man made tracks,
where you went to far, and couldn't turn back.
Your hair is covered in cocaine residue.
Your lips are cracked, sore, and azure blue.
You hold that needle one more time,
knowing you walk a translucent line.
Ecstasy runs like blood in your veins.
I can see it's rapture, every time your neck strains.
Your bedazzled by it's shimmering illusions,
only to let it put you in pitiful confusion.
Down a dead end, you travel with the speed of light.
But what if you died tonight?
Or is that what you want, eternal flame?
Hey, you have only yourself to blame.
I say no more, I'm not the accuser.
I won't waste my time, on a drug user.

Ode To The Drug User

Crystal meth has stained your eyes.
No use for your weak disguise.
Your arms show the man made tracks,
where you went to far, and couldn't turn back.
Your hair is covered in cocaine residue.
Your lips are cracked, sore, and azure blue.
You hold that needle one more time,
knowing you walk a translucent line.
Ecstasy runs like blood in your veins.
I can see it's rapture, every time your neck strains.
Your bedazzled by it's shimmering illusions,
only to let it put you in pitiful confusion.
Down a dead end, you travel with the speed of light.
But what if you died tonight?
Or is that what you want, eternal flame?
Hey, you have only yourself to blame.
I say no more, I'm not the accuser.
I won't waste my time, on a drug user.

This piece is really interesting u used great descriptive words and really made me feel sorry for this person and that’s when u know you’re a really good writer or poet when you can pull your readers in and make them picture what’s going on.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
