Ice

[drug_wench]

Shots of pain that give no more
Seeds that take you to the floor
Pleasure is a deadly flower
Deadly petals take your power
Paranoid suspicion smiled
At your wisdom, rots you, child
Devil's eyes a deadly glow
Ice is only frost - or woe
See your sorrow, see your pain
Melted ice is only rain

Disease consumed you - took control
Ice has left you scarred and cold
Pleasure is a sad delusion
Ice just left you in confusion
Now the darkness takes it's flight
War is in your glowing pipe
War is in you - life or death?
Choose life over crystal meth

What goes up must come down hard
Pain makes up for every shard
That you thought was truly pleasure
Reality's your only treasure
Now the rain's evaporated
Ice and pain have dissipated
Happiness has now returned
Hopefully you've finally learned
Drugs will take away your pride
Crystal's low aint worth the high

This was really really good.
I can relate fairly well to heaviness of this piece as well.
my pipe is one of my biggest personal demons, everytime i throw it away some how it gets replaced.
love the work, keep it up!

but now im going to rehab!!!!

This line sums it up for me, so powerfully:

Pleasure is a deadly flower

Keep up the good fight.
