We live to die
We smoke to get high
We run to drugs
Sweep our problems under the rug

You think it'll go away
Reality is here to stay

Drugs make you happy
I make you blue
You said you'd quit
I BELIEVED IN YOU

drugs are never the answer to solving problems, you're just covering up one problem with anothet, I hope that you can help this person to get off drugs,

Drugs ARE never the answer everybody knows it, but that will not make people quit. Nothing an addicts friend/family says, will make them stop, the only thing that can stop them, is themself. I understand the point you are trying to get across, and I really do like this poem, it shows why people use drugs, and things like that, so once again, this was a good poem. keep writing

another amazing write. written to perfection. drugs are used to escape problems, all they do is shut you in that trap door that they used. and they cant get out of it again. they are trapped in their own problems and eventually drown in them. like i said amazing write. great rhythym and very powerful.
