One Step to Death

Depressants
I have to be the best
No matter how stressed
Pressure to go to ivy leagues
All causing me to be stressed
Steroids
Losing isn’t an option
I need to be the fastest
The strongest
The quickest
And the best there is
Heroin
I can’t take my world anymore
I need to escape
Need to breathe and get away
Club drugs
I want him to want me
But he never will until he’s out of it
Stimulants
Mom is yelling at me
Principal calls everyday
I’m knocking people out
Like it’s part of my schedule
Tobacco, Inhalants, Marijuana
My life is tumbling downhill
I’ve already lost my grip
Might as well get away
Before I’m whipped
Slight my wrists
And hope to die
Breathing harder and starting to cry
Alcohol
Inhaling bottles after bottles
Stupid choices
Getting in the car
Driving down my street
So high that I think I have died
Screams and a crash
Familiar yet strange
Eyes communicating with the brain
Reality
I’ve killed my whole family, mother father and dog
All because my friend offered me some
[so listen up hear me loud and clear never start and you will never have to worry my dear]

    First thing that comes to mind is to just,
    " Say No !!! ".
    WoW what a story you tell in this piece.
    You build it up in a way that has the reader
    wanting more. AN amazing job you have done.

    Loveandblessings2u & yours always

    An interesting take on drugs, not always correct, but interesting. You need to break it up some, so that it's easier to read. Other than that, good luck in the contest.
