Array ( [sid] => 89049 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Over-dose [time] => 2005-03-28 11:22:47 [hometext] => This is a reminder to all girls just what could happen if you put yourself in a bad situatioin. You can read all my poetry at www.mypoetickingdom.com [bodytext] => Its All About A Living

Its cold and raining outside,
As you stand there and wait for him.
Selling yourself to a somebody,
You don't even know where hes been.

But yet to you its a way of living,
In this world of hell.
But just by the things that you are doing,
I know time will tell.

That even though the moneys great,
But yet you wish more.
Sex can be a gateway to other things,
And than after, you ask what for.

You've lost all that you have hoped for,
But when you think its gonna shine.
But now you have developed deathly AIDS,
With in such little time.

You stop caring anymore,
About everyone and you.
You turn towards a substance,
Who cares if you go to.

The drugs that you partake,
Make the pain go away.
It makes your job a whole lot easier,
Just to get another days pay.

Life is going well,
You feel so alive inside.
But soon enough you will see,
That theirs more than just a high.

You dont look pretty anymore,
They wont stop you on the street.
You stand there on that corner,
You've got soars upon your feet.

Its been about a week,
And you have twenty dollars left.
And you spent it on a drug,
That now has caused you death.

Now that you are dead.
But you are not the last.
You've given so many people,
The disease you received in the past.
