Without you I'm nothing,
Just a looser on the street,
Atleast when I've got you,
I won't ever be alone,
Your my addiction,
Your my release,
I can't last without you,
Listen to me, please,
Hell was raised today,
An argument with mom,
She doesn't understand,
Your my reason to be,
When I'm high I'm happy,
that I will always be,
No one understands,
How it feels to be me,
Your my addiction,
Your my release,
I can't last without you,
Listen to me, please,
She says how I hurt her,
I've never caused her any harm,
She's my mother and I love her,
But this is who I am,
I'm a druggy,
I want to be,
But now when I'm high,
I don't feel like me,
Your my addiction,
Your my release,
I can't last without you,
Listen to me please,
My friends ditched me today,
Smoked up and left,
Why would they do that?
Is this who I am?
Am I really like that?
No it can't be,
I'm a good person,
I guess no one really knows me,
Your my addiction,
Your my release,
I can't last without you,
Listen to me, please,
What have I got myself into,
Yesturday I quit,
Now I'm craving more and more,
I can't last without it,
I thought I had control,
I thought I knew what it was,
Now I'm dying,
Inside not out,
I'm just a looser on the street,
Your my addcition,
You were my release,
I can't last without you,
This is my last plea,
Forgive what I've done,
Forgive my stupidness,
Just try to understand,
This is my mess,
You were always there for me,
No matter what I did,
Now it's my turn,
Time to pay back my debts,
I tried it once and I was hooked,
Then I made new friends,
But I didn't know them,
Now they're enemies,
I started feeling bad then,
It just wasn't me,
My friends turned into monsters,
My truths became lies,
My addiction haunts me,
These are my cries,
They're still my addiction,
They used to bring release,
Im managing without it,
At last this is me.

Author notes
When I listen to this song, I here cries, of someone who thought they were happy, but then it turned out everything they did was wrong, in this poem, the teen had got hooked on drugs, he was happy at first, then he got to know the person he became and tried to stop. I chose abuse for the category because they were abusing drugs.

This is really good. Drugs can really damage everything in ones life. I am guessing that the song you chose is without you. I love that song...Thanks so much for entering this in my contest.
Excellent job.
Good luck
