Lost

I looked to find you in the places I know

 in the corners where we used to go

 you were not there you were gone

i remember your eyes at two

 how they lit up at the sight of an open flame

 wide like a brown eyed dawn

now everything is black

 your eyes steel and  stoned

  you are now all Crystal Meth

programmed for a fix

 hurtling always to that desolate high

  raking in all kinds of debts

i looked to find you in the places I know

 in love where the heart grows

 you were not there you were gone

Now when all is said and done

Honey lets make a pact

 I am always open to hear

what  it is in your soul you lack

we looked to find you

in the quiet of our dreams

no Saving of the Souls

every moment we grow old  

knowing you are gone.

This is beautiful and painful. There's something sad and.. lost about it. Trying to reach something, someone. I loved it.
I must admit the font makes it a little hard for me to read it at times, it interrupts a bit the flow of my reading, but that's a detail. I'll read more of your writing for sure.

Thank you Louise for your lovely review will bear in mind about the font. Will stop by soon! Take care

Wow, I can relate to his message, having a dear relative that went down that forsaken path in her youth. Your words are accurate.......hauntingly , " knowing you are gone " is so hard to accept. In my case the person has been off/clean for a couple years now, but you always wonder...are they ever really "off"....I fear so much, not !

[. - .]

We all need to move on, even if it does hurt, even if it is hard.......
This write is different compared to the others I have seen so far.
Good job

[Dalia]

Very passionate and touching indeed , well done :)

oh my....well, that's torn it. cocaine and heroin are bad enough but meth....whoo! there's are whole nother animal. you sound like a supportive and loving friend and i hope that is enough in this case. this write is way too personal for me not to feel it, i have had friends who were where this individual is. intervention is the only way out that i know to work...intervention with meticulous reinforcement and lots of love . fantastic piece of writing here....

[MOON]

Thank you for this thoughtful understanding review and the advice , wish I did not have to pen this ! Take care.

so, so, sad..

that is just one of the nastiest drugs around.. believe me, i know

some will say, tough love.. others maybe, just always be there for them, for they are lost.. trying to escape whatever it is that they fear..

this breaks my heart.. the worst part is feeling so helpless.. all we can do is what are heart tell us to..

many blessings your way for you and your loved ones..

what they dont realize, and even if they do, is that when their lost, so are we..

great piece moon

(((You)))
