Drugs on the Inside, Bruises and Cuts on the Outside

Drugs on the Inside, Bruises and Cuts on the Outside

She lies there on the floor,

Drugs in her veins,

Monster in her mind.

She’s begging for help,

He comes in and holds her

While she cries.

He sees the deep scratches and bruises on her arms,

And the drugs on on the edge

Of the table,

He starts to cry,

Asking her why

Why she would do this to herself?

Β 

She says it takes away the pain,

It gives her freedom for that

One second,

Like..she doesn’t have to fight for

Her life anymore.

But the problem was she did,

This was killing her.

She was dying a little bit more

Every time that needle went

Through her vein,

Every time that blade

Sliced her fragile, porcelain skin.

Ollie this is well written and such a hard subject to write about, but there are so many who feel this pain, either as a user or as the observer. Numbing that pain always seems easier then feeling it, but the only way out is going inside and through it. Good job with this harsh and hurting reality. Blessings, Rebecca
