I'm lost in a maze of emotions
Mixed feelings beating me with a whip
My dreams crushed like a piece of trash
Words sounding not of anything but an endless hum
It's been forever since I felt happiness
My feelings turned inside out
I'm falling through a hole with no bottom
Deeper and deeper I go
Where right is wrong
Bad is good
Endless confusion
Filled with trivial moments
It could've been better
It could've been alright
But the pain was too much
I drank and smoked
I took every drug it's possible to take
Emotion put me here into this position
pushed me into this pit of despair
It's too late for me now
Save yourself
Once lost I can't be found
Author notes
I'm only twelve but I've taken a look at my life and I've realized that this could be my future. I mean I've been so desprete to be happy again. I've been getting high and other stuff so this is sort of what could happen to me. Ever since I saw this video I'm determined to stop huffing. My friends have been really supportive but it's just real hard on me and my friend. I'm angry half the time and sad the rest time. It's the hardest thing I've tried to do. Guess I should have listen to live above the influence commercials and when adults say once you start it's nearly impossible to stop.

If i where you i wouldn't put myself so much down in the dumps..
atleast a point in everyones life they turn to drugs to find there happiness again well atleast what they think is happiness.
I know how you feel.. I'm a drug user myself..
I first started out drink and then i started smoking pot, then after that i started getting in alot more heavier drugs...
I've been a zombie for 3 years now, everyday i get high, because of the shit that happened to me 3 years ago.. sure my hole life sence i was 5 i was dignosed with deperrision.. and i always have let it effect me..
my father always beat me.. while my mother just watched because she was helpless she was scared of him..
then 3 years ago i lost my happiness, i got raped, then my ex boyfriend broke up with me because of that, then i got raped 5 other times after that by 5 other different people in just the last 3 years.. so i constently did drugs and still do drugs everyday just to get my happiness..
Honestly now all i have is just addiction, and get pissy when i don't get as high as i want too...
But i really know how you feel like the only way you can find happiness is through drugs..

Excellent
I think your poem was great. Addictions burden most of us in some way. Putting it in a poem was terrific. You did a wonderful job.

I think we all have our addictions in life, no matter what they are they send us spirialing into a private torment and only we can stop it. A great piece you've penned here.

Drugs are a dangerous thing, very harmful, etc. This like can really be anyones, but it's your choice to make that of yourself. I like the meaning and feeling you placed into this poem. Thanks for entering and good luck.
