Rocket's Poem
A drug addict for life???
I feel my blood pumping through my veins
This feeling is driving me insane
Thoughts racing through my head I wonder if
I would be better if I were dead
Every noise around me I can hear
But I’m not shaking in fear I see everybody all around me
But I am not free I sit here trapped
Wish I could get slapped
I want to awaken from this hellish dream
I really really need to scream
What the fuck is wrong
I’ve never been without drugs this long It all sinks in
I’m scared of my own skin
Can I ever live a life without drugs
Maybe I should try and get more love and hugs
Maybe I’m just beyond repair
Maybe straight life has given me a scare
Maybe I’m scared of success
Fuck maybe I’m worried I’ll only make a big mess
What if I stop now and don’t even try
I’d have no excuse to fucking cry I may as well stay in jail
Scared that all I’ll do is fail
Forget all my hopes and dreams
I’m sitting here listening to all the drugs scream
Calling out my bloody name
Should I be ashamed Drugs left me here for dead
But still I can’t get them out of my head
Drugs are rife
