In shadows deep, where danger looms,
A cautionary tale, as daylight glooms
Drugs may whisper, their promises sweet,
But down that path, pain and ruin meet.
A toxic path, where dreams decay,
As substances lead our lives astray
Once in their grip, it's hard to break free,
From chains of addiction that bind and seize.
The highs they offer, so tempting and bright,
Are but fleeting illusions that cloud our sight
Behind the Euphoria, darkness resides,
A life unraveled, where hope slowly slides.
The heartache it causes, the tears it brings,
Can shatter families, and silence sings
A future stolen, a promise denied,
As addiction's cold grip tightens its tide.
Innocence lost an trust betrayed,
In the realm of drugs, no one is saved
So let us stand strong, united and wise,
Reject the temptation, and reach for the skies.

They almost ruined my life. Great poem.
Thanks for appreciating the poem, Thomas.
There is a way to break the need,
And it sprouts from the smallest seed.
