When A Cookie Crumbles

She's high, calling out "Look what you did to me"

Drug addict cause her boyfriend swept her off her feet

Introduced her to the cold stuff, now she does her own stuff

This hate love relationship the kind you cant get enough of

Its hard with the stress

Her boyfriends messing up the rest

So she pops another pill

To drift away for a few

Thinking about the dreams she could of had

Instead of picking up a bag

Face blunts at it

Has her whole world pouring out

Its only a matter of seconds before she falls out

She has her parents freaking out

Clueless of the little college girl who use to call before she goes out

Now she doesn't even call back when the phone is down

A few years later, she just turned 25 looking like shes 39

Boyfriend left her all alone

Now she has nobody here

Parents haven't seen her or called her in about a year

Only one on earth to make her disappear

Is the the drugs stashed away

Hidden in a secret place

Telling herself that shes happy but shes really not

Bills stacking up

She has to leave in a month

Anxiety in action 

What more could be happening?

So she does another line

And then rolls another dime

And now shes gone

Till the next day in time

Very nicely written. I love reading poetry like yours that shows a lot of raw emotion. My favorite stanza in this one is:
"Its hard with the stress
Her boyfriends messing up the rest
So she pops another pill
To drift away for a few"
Your words tell the story of how people will end up living their days, just ready for that day to be over, only to do the same with the next. Reminds me of how I ended up living the last two years in a horrible relationship with some drugs and with a guy who I'd made my whole world. Your poem is very easy to relate with. I don't know if you enjoy reading dark poetry like this yourself, but if you do, I think you'd like some of my older writing, but I hope you keep writing, I would love to read more of yours. :)

I've been there and it wasn't easy to get back from there. I'll not be going there again. Never was a pill popper though. I am deathly afraid of most prescription meds side affects. Took Ritalin when I was a kid, made me a zombie, I'm good thanx but no thanx. I like where you went with this. Takes courage. Well done.

It's easy to blame anyone else for our failings and seems to be a fairly universally employed excuse for addicts -- regardless of whether it's a drug, alcohol, food, or behavioral addiction. Nothing is harder than watching someone you care about, lost in the grip of addiction.

NOTES: Underlining the entire text is distracting and doesn't help the reading.

everything is underlined, cool. it's different like you never see that, you know? It's a nice change from notebook rules where you always had to underline just only titles.
