cunning enemy of life

She drank,
Last time it was complete insanity
I was witness to her disease
her disease is my disease
she was my mentor
my peer
3months myself the last time she went there
I sat n held her hand
wiped her nose
held her hair
laid down beside her in the dirt
A screaming mess or anger n sadness
because his disease made him shoot enough to kill
it took her a year
6months locked away
6months back on this journey I also travel
today she drank again
every time it becomes more insane
last time was almost death
my fear for her this time is sickening
made me cry
made me shake
i found her alive
7hours of flipping from manic to destruction
obsession insanity the devil we carry
she drank n she swallowed
Her eyes rolled to white
eating cigarettes
Scratching her skin away
the pain to take away the pain
my friend
to love someone more than they love themselves is tough
this time Im not 3months Im 18months and stronger
i took ur keys
I took ur pills away
i tipped that poison down in the gutter
I walked away
until tomorrow I pray u stay alive
stay sane enough to fight this evil
fucking evil cunt of a sentence
stay alive for me my beautiful friend
