Friends come and friends go, even the truest. The ones I thought were mine forever, spirralled away. Friend #1 He was the first to go, once he started drugs. Hallucination he preferred, than having friends. He used to be so sweet, and always made me laugh. Now he is a hollow shell, without his once alive soul. Friend #2 She used to be so solid, with a smile that could cure. She's sing you a song she'd written, each time I was amazed. Such a beautiful girl, so full of talent. Until she drank away her sorrows, and began to starve herself. Her cheeks are no longer rosy, but a deathly pale. Her alive spirit seemed to die, when friend #1 broke her heart. Friend #3 And friend number three, what can I say. He didn't do drugs, drink or starve himself, he just walked away one day. He pulled away with us still loving him, for reasons I shall never know. He is the friend I loved the most, and I miss him so much. He is the healthiest yet I worry about him the most, to pull away with no reason, is what scares me the most. Three people have walked away, all ties seem broken. It makes me sad to see them, because I remember who they used to be.

This is a warning against drugs and alcohol. It can do some pretty nasty things.
