Hesitate

Baby boy
Therapist visits
Wheezing
Screaming
Gasping
Tears rolling
Soon all will be silent
Don't fear Mom
You never worry
You held that powder to your face
and didn't hesitate
to wish away life
Two lives
to be specific
For at the time
Mom
you were responsible
for more than yourself
Your addiction would increase
but so would his
Did you think about that?
Mom?
That every second he lived
would be spent in agony
Longing for a poison
destined to kill him
Wether out of use
or lack there of
He wouldn't be on this Earth long
But you didn't hesitate
Mom
