• Drugs.
    The things that make loves ones stumble
    That make them fall and hurt
    but also makes us hurt

    Is this really a poem?
    It can't be a poem
    Poems are not like this
    Not bad like this

    Poems are to make us feel good
    Poems must reassure us
    Make us feel better
    Make us secure.

    But what if
    What if this can make someone stop?
    What if this can change someone's life?
    What if it does reassure someone?

    Could these words help?
    Could this be a poem?
    Could these words contain the power to stop the hurt?
    Maybe this poem is a poem.
