Miss Heroin

So little-man you've grown tired of grass,

L.S.D, coke, downers, and hash,

and someone pretending to be a good friend

said, i'll introduce you to miss heroin.

 

Well honey before you start messing with me

just let me inform you of how it will be.

For i will seduce you and make you my slave

I've sent men much stronger than you to the grave.

 

You think you can never become a disgrace,

and end up addicted to poppy seed waste.So you'll start inhaling me one afternoon

you'll take me into your arms very soon.

and once i have entered deep down in your veins

the craving will nearly drive you insane

 

you'll need lots of money

as you have been told

, for darlin' i'm much more expensive then gold.

 

you'll swindle your parent just for a buck

and then tuen into something vile and corrupt.

you'll mug and you'll steal

for my narcotic charms

and you'll feel content when i melt in your arms

 

the day you realize the monster you've grown

you'll solemly promise to leave me alone.

and if you think you've got that mystical knack

then sweety just try gettin me off your back

 

the vomit ,the cramps, your gut tied in a knot

the gagling nerves screaming just for one shot.

 

the hot chill, the cold sweat

the withdrawn pains.

they can only be stopped by my little white grains.

 

theres no other way theres no need to look

and deep down inside you know you are hooked.

you'll desperately run to your pusher and then,

you'll welcome me into your arms once again.

 

and when you return,  as i have foretold

i know that you'll give me your body and soul.

you'll give me your morals , your concience, your heart.

and you'll be with me always

til' death do us part.

amazing poem.

Those drugs don't play. In the end. Drug will win. A powerful poem with a lot of truth. A excellent rough copy.
