This is another work that I created while in the begining stages of recovery.
You tell me to quit

To just leave it be

"Just quit using"

Like it's just so easy

Do a favor

While your standing there

Just for an hour or so

Stop using air!

Don't you understand

Can't you comprehend

This is not something

That I can just end

Crystal has been my life

For well over a year

You can't imagine the pain

You can't understand the fear

You want me to let go

Of my life line

You ask me to see

Even though I'm blind

You say it's hurting

Those close to me

I really want to care

I hope that you can see

But when you say

To quit using dope

I want to know

How the fuck am I suppose to cope??!?

You just don't see

How scared I am

So just go away

And quitting be damned!!
