meth tears

   
inside i cry  
for the drug battle lost  
another day  
   
fear has me by the throat  
what if you're found out?  
   
you would lose all you love  
for what?  
   
because you couldn't  
take another day down  
what compels you to go on?  
   
when you should lie sleeping  
until your body is healed  
you need to think of those    
who most need you  
   
your drive to write  
will not fail you  
in your darkest hours  
you will find inspiration  
   
let yourself rest  
find your footing  
then come back    
with a different perspective  
   
your's is a garden
in need of weeding  
it's time to grow
past what you know  
without fear
of what will be revealed  
   
you may just find a love of self  
you didn't know was there
