[hometext] => I wrote this poem long before I started doing drugs. I got it published in the International Library of Poetry.
[bodytext] => The bodies passed out on the floor seem to float up around me The morbid stench of sex and death Mixes with the sweet aroma of incense The freezing room becomes warm and comfortable And all is well I have many friends, and feel wonderful and loved I slowly drift into a peaceful sleep of magic and enlightment My mind begins to float into a bizarre world of fantasy I am scared, yet enjoying every minute of it For the first time in my life I feel like I'm actually starting to amount to something My thoughts and hopes are crashed As my crusted and blood-shot eyes open To reveal a horrible world of truth A terrifying hangover of hate settles around me The drunken veterans of pills, needles and scars Turn into the monsters that inhabited my closet as a child All my enemies and fears come to life as I sober up But as the full headache sets in I suddenly feel superior To the crackheads lying in the artificial world where I once was I had been forced to suffer the rath of hatred but one time But the evil people who I thought were my friends Must suffer a thousand times more. 2003 [comments] => 2 [counter] => 162 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Alli [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

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. ©
