Not long ago, I found a friend.
They vowed to take care of me, Right till the end.
They would always pick me up. Never let me fall.
They promised they would see me through, and deal with it all.
I was getting lazy hung-over constantly. Job was on the line.
Same with friends and family. My new friend made me social.
Helped me get things done. Whispered words of confidence.
Made things seem more fun.
I soon began losing weight. Stayed awake for days on end,
And then began to realize. This was not a friend!
I felt good for a while. Shiny, Happy and Free.
But then things started going downhill. They weren't as fun as they used to be.
Leers, Anxiety, Tweaking, Possessions',
Guilt and shame were my new found obsessions.
Cracked lips, speed bumps, paranoia, fear. "Oh shit, who's at my door,
Are those gunshots that I hear?" I told my friend I was done with them
And tried to push away. They laughed at me and said
"My dear, you haven't heard my say. I've got you by the hair,
I've got you by the brain, You can't let me go, my dear.
There is still more suffering and pain. I've got you wanting more you see.
You will never walk away. Not without more hits of me. To get you through the day."
