seeing a family member lose the battle to drugs

 living with an addict never just bothers you,
its friends and your close neighbours that also struggle through,
they worry for there belongings and hide whats in there yard,
you may be a loving person but an addict puts them on guard,
they watch far from the distance some judge some understand,
most look down there nose as you offer an helping hand,
an addict will watch you spend say your moneys gone to waste,
to them drugs are there life and the one u loves been replaced,
they sit with you quietly planning has there fixing there next game,
to feed on there addiction that leaves us sat in pain,
when the drugs been taken there so much happier to you,
but thats just there fake front its the drugs thats coming through,
all the lies and there deceit that always breaks your heart,
dont judge on this addict this persons life is falling apart,
stand by them be there but there habit do not feed,
keep your money away and safe be there another way they need,
keep strong and fight this stranger that takes the loved one that you see,
there in there some were begging that this habbit set them free....
