Seeing but not hearing,
Looking but in a daze.
Another memory clearing,
This high is just a phase.
NUMB
Shooting up or snorting,
Hooked either way.
Clueless to the mess your boarding,
Are you willing to pay?
NUMB
Feeling no pain,
Emotions run cold.
Another lfe down the drain,
Because other drugs are old.
NUMB
Addiction destroys a life,
Withdraw feels like dieing.
The cost causes strife,
No matter how little your buying
NUMB
In search of happiness,
Shooting up is the game.
Receiving emptiness,
Herion is its name.
NUMB
please give me your veiws...

I really like this. The flow and the rhymes are great. The descriptions are so accurate of drugs. Great Job, this is wonderful.

This was spectacular. The words and rhyme worked perfectly. Drugs are crazy things. And I agree with every line of this poem.
Keep writing.

Wow
This is wonderful!!! Describing how though the drug may make you high that is the only feeling you will have... everything else is numb, your family, your friends they get mixed in but addicts they don't care... they are numb to the feelings of love and trust that used to be their they ca see others hurting but are to numb to care...
My favorite parts definetely had to be the last stanza!!!
In search of happiness,
Shooting up is the game.
Receiving emptiness,
Herion is its name
So well written!!! I have been through this on both sides... not with herion, but other drugs and you trade in everything love trust and the happiness of others around you includin thos who love and care about you the most just to get that next high... It is no way to live!

I can relate to this more than anything being an ex-drug addict myself, I really hope that things get better for you and STAY SOBER!!! It's the only way to go. It's a better life and we all know it. God bless. ♥ Erin

love these stanzas the most, but the whole poem is definitely great. -
awesome. this isn't a topic i often see addressed, and you've done a great job with it.
i'm not sure if the insertion of the word numb in between each stanza adds or detracts from the poem. i'll have to read some more, but either way, i love it. -
ahh the numbness..it conquors all, does it not?...keep up the amazing work
-
