-- Posted by TheAddiction at 3:07 am on June 18, 2008 My Name: "Is Meth" I destroy homes, I tear families apart, Take your children, and that's just the start. I'm more costly than diamonds, more precious than gold, The sorrow I bring is a sight to behold. If you need me, remember I'm easily found, I live all around you - in schools and in town I live with the rich; I live with the poor, I live down the street, and maybe next door. I'm made in a lab, but not like you think, I can be made under the kitchen sink. In your child's closet, and even in the woods, If this scares you to death, well it certainly should. I have many names, but there's one you know best, I'm sure you've heard of me, my name is Crystal Meth. My power is awesome; try me you'll see, But if you do, you may never break free. Just try me once and I might let you go, But try me twice, and I'll own your soul. When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie, You do what you have to - just to get high. The crimes you'll commit for my narcotic charms Will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms, Your lungs and your nose. You'll lie to your mother; You'll steal from your dad, When you see their Tears, you should feel sad. But you'll forget your morals and how you Were raised, I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways. I take kids from parents, and parents from kids, I turn people from God, and separate friends. I'll take everything from you, your looks and your Pride, I'll be with you always - right be your side. You'll give up everything - your family, your home, Your friends, your money, then you'll be alone. I'll take and take, till you have nothing more to give, When I'm finished with you, you'll be lucky to live. If you try me be warned - this is no game, If given the chance, I'll drive you insane. I'll ravish your body, I'll control your mind, I'll own you completely, your soul will be mine. The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed, The voices you'll hear, from inside your head. The sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see, I want you to know, these are all gifts from me. But then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart, That you are mine, and we shall not part. You'll regret that you tried me, they always do, But you came to me, not I to you. You knew this would happen, many times you were told, But you challenged my power, and chose to be bold. You could have said no, and just walked away, If you could live that day over, now what would you say? I'll be your master, you will be my slave, I'll ever go with you, when you go to your grave. Now that you have met me, what will you do? Will you try me or not? It's all up to you. I can bring you more misery than words can tell, Come take my hand, let me lead you to hell. -- Posted by mousiegurl27 at 3:09 am on June 18, 2008 This brings up bad memories... -- Posted by blufindr at 3:09 am on June 18, 2008 holy shit... did you write that? -- Posted by Rock Lobster at 3:09 am on June 18, 2008 makes me want some meth -- Posted by KatieMD at 3:13 am on June 18, 2008 oh wow.. -- Posted by iamben at 3:23 am on June 18, 2008 For those reasons it is attractive. That reminded me of a lot of things, it was good. Thanks. -- Posted by robdude at 3:24 am on June 18, 2008 its 3:30 in CA. i hope your not on it. -- Posted by Anonymous at 3:24 am on June 18, 2008 LOL this is funny, i'm high on METH right now...and its thee best feeling in thee wrold. I have never regret it && never will, I keep getting high cuz I love the feeling (its better than sex) LOL. But yeah...I agree I do not recommend anyone to try it...BELIVE ME its a REALLY expensive addiction. And you gotta be really smart, my homies && cousins always told me and still do " you gotta control the drug, not let it control you" you gotta be really smart and strong to be able to overpower it. I learned the hard way...but now everything perfect...if you ever try it (I hope you don't) its not a toy or a game...its highly addictive. i got hooked on it the first time I ever tried it. And that was 3yrs and a half, always remember that everything and anyone are ALWAYS more imortant that getting high on Meth...yeah its really hard at the biginning but if your a strong person you'll control it and not let it control you...right now Meth is what makes me the happiest. I love it so much...the high you get is unbelivable...just remember your getting high on CHEMICALS like acetone, lysol, rubbing alchol. good Luck -- Posted by TheAddiction at 3:29 am on June 18, 2008 Quote: from robdude at 3:24 am on June 18, 2008 its 3:30 in CA. i hope your not on it. hahahahha your kidding me right? id never do meth my brother and sisters were addicts. never touching it my brothers in jail and i havent talked ot my sister in 2 years so no thanks :) -- Posted by BBI at 3:39 am on June 18, 2008 meth.. i heard about it and what it does for the human body.. is it legal there in the US coz i heard that alot of single poor moms take it.. not sure, correct me if im wrong btw good poem -- Posted by W o n d e r l a n d at 3:46 am on June 18, 2008 Quote: from Anonymous at 8:24 pm on June 18, 2008 LOL this is funny, i'm high on METH right now...and its thee best feeling in thee wrold.

Just take other drugs, for fucks sake. Not a bad poem, literacy wise. I dislike the line about the kitchen sink, mainly because it seems less deep and poetic (haha!) than some of the others. It's very well written. -- Posted by Sparkle Me Pink at 3:55 am on June 18, 2008 I have read this several times,  a very powerful piece and I hope it is a voice to those struggling with this nasty addiction. -- Posted by TheAddiction at 4:00 am on June 18, 2008 i know what you mean, once you read it. you cant stop. its a poem about the drug. and it already wants to keep you reading about it. horrible haha -- Posted by Apotheosis at 4:40 am on June 18, 2008 meh, tried meth, not that big a deal. coke is way worse imo -- Posted by iamben at 5:44 am on June 18, 2008 Quote: from Apotheosis at 4:40 am on June 18, 2008 meh, tried meth, not that big a deal. coke is way worse imo Have you tried coke? In small doses it's pretty good. Meth is like any other drug, if you take it enough times, it's never going to have a healthy outcome. -- Posted by Apotheosis at 12:52 pm on June 18, 2008 Quote: from iamben at 8:44 am on June 18, 2008 Have you tried coke?
