What happen to my sister my friend Is so hard to comprehend She has what some would call an addiction It’s become a life time conviction Once beautiful and whole Now heroin has complete control It’s robbed her of the love & self worth That my mother instilled since birth No love does she have to share Heroin’s her only care Once loyal, true, honest & brave Now a Heroin slave Her family, friends & children she left behind To the street she is confined Not always as it now seems She too had hopes & dreams That have since been shattered & torn Her body now battered & worn Going from one Jon to the next With absolutely no respect My sister & friend no longer exist Because of this drug she can’t resist I used to silently under my breath Wish for her death Now I hope & pray That somewhere someday We will see The person she used to be
Reason for writing:
Written for my sister who for the last 2 years has lost everything and everyone she ever loved becuase of this deadly drug so those of you thinking of trying don't it ruins the best of mothers, sister daughter, brothers children, fathers. rich people poor people. Especially those of us who think it won;t happen to me.
