Array ( [sid] => 47610 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Stranger [time] => 2004-05-15 07:49:06 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I was taken away from you,
You were so intoxicated, I doubt you knew,
I was put into care,
Because the responsibilities you didn’t want to share.

You were my pro-creator,
I never thought I would live to hate you,
Of you I am the spitting image,
Emotionally you’ve caused me damage.

I remember you kept my sister,
When you left her, did you miss her?
Why didn’t you take care of me?
I needed love,why couldn’t you see.

All you cared about was your next hit,
A mother , you weren’t fit,
It was your drug of choice that laid you to rest ,
You know what they say, a junkie knows best!!!

When you died I wanted to feel sorrow,
But as I stood there, I was just hollow,
You died at age twenty-seven,
That is no age to enter heaven.

The other thing you taught me in life,
Other than how to survive grief and strife,
Is that ***** you pumped into your arm,
Will cause so much raw, emotional harm.

Wow pixie,
this is heart breaking but written really well.
I can't imagene what that was like, altho I know some people that died too young because of drugs like meth, etc.
U have a great gift of writing and u have risen above this even tho painfjull.
Good work!
luv, huggs, peace,
emy
