She lives a life, not deserving to do so,
she doesn’t support herself, yet burdens
the world with her existence.
Still a child, yet all grown up,
should take responsibility for herself.
She lives in an apartment rent free,
for the taxpayers “give” her that luxury.
Heat and lights aren’t a necessity,
she’s doing quite well without.
The money for those utilities , shot up her veins,
threatens suicide every time she doesn’t get what she wants
So go do it!
She steals from the people who love her the most
while they nurse her wounds.
She steals from the people who take her in
when she’s at her worst.
Makes false accusations
against people who have always been there
to try to keep people from seeing
what she’s been doing behind their backs.
Tries to keep the heat off of her
while ruining the lives of her friends.
Can’t get caught stealing,
can’t get caught using,
can’t get caught lying,
can’t admit when she’s wrong,
“attempts” suicide when she’s been caught.
Too bad you didn’t die!

Author notes
I wrote this piece about a friend who chose drugs over her family, friends, education and life. On September 3rd, 2006, She died of a drug overdose due to a suspected suicide. I now wish I had not written these words.
Please tell me what you think
