Fading Away With Drugs

by melanie   Jun 27, 2005


Your fading away, just like the rest.
I've begged you to stay.
Is it our friendship you detest?
Your losing your color and I can see through your heart.
I've tried to keep us together but we're falling apart.
My Best Friend just left me, oh what should I do?
I know you can't help it, it's surprising you too.
Our differences have just seemed to grow and grow.
So now eachother we don't even know.
Hold my hand one more time, before you disappear before my eyes.
I've tried and tried to grab your hand and hold it tight.
But your slipping away, reality has got a hold of you.
Oh why can't you stay? You'll be in a grave soon.
Why have you chosen the path that fades?
It fades away with all the pain.
And with it's tempting input you begin to walk.
But the outcome is simply laying in a grave left to rot.
why have you chosen to walk with the dead, to sleep everyday as you live here?
You are being so stupid, why don't you just use your head?
Until then you'll just endlessly steer.
You don't know where your going, but I do, cause I've been there too.
It is a monster you are forming, why don't you listen to the truth?
Why have you chosen to fade away? Embracing your drugs with which to never part?
Why don't you please just stay?
I hold you closest to my heart.

* This is dedicated to all of my friends and family that are on drugs. They don't know how it affects thier children and friends the way it really does. I have written this in the hopes of them one day recognizing.....

    This is kinda the situation I am in right now w/ one of my best friends. Unfortunately people dont hear what they dont want to hear. Mabey I'll have her read this, it is very well put. Mabey it will be an eyeopener. because god knows just talking w/ her has not woke her up. Great writing.
