This does seem to be happening with great frequency these days, doesn't it? Lousy subject for the beauty that can be poetry. Well done, however.

Hi Loanna,

You have no idea how drug addiction scares me to death. I guess I'm speaking mainly about those street drugs that totally destroy people. You captured this so well in your poem.

Hugs,
Lou

"It must feel sad and lonely when no one cares you're gone" - as simple and profound a sentece as you'll find. Unless you count "If only that was all of her" - wow - that's one of those lines you just stare at for a while so you can take it in.

What a powerful, deep poem this is. "face no longer sweet" captures perfectly the idea that we're born innocent and waiting to be loved, and when, for some, that love doesn't come, they become can become people they weren't meant to be.

Until I read Smurphgirl's account of crack addiction, I had no real idea of its effects. A family so badly affected by this is tragic. Your poem really showed up the emptiness of a family when a member has been taken away by drugs, Giddy

A very well implemented poem. Your choice of wording delivered a true sentiment to the realities many of us pass by each day. Addiction for anything can be harmful indeed, and the ones mentioned brings only destruction and death.

Thee are many such that will never find themselves again yet we are quick to judge without reason.
Good write.
Best wishes, well worth my six stars.

It must feel sad and lonely when no one cares you're gone,
so when she left with nothing nothing remained to carry on.
I read this as sad but you did a good job nice poem

It is truly sad when someone give themselves to a drug based life. And they often do it at so a young an age. Haven't experienced life at all. Just trying to escape from whatever has broken them. But it is the wrong way to get healed. Very sad indeed. A wonderful poem showing off your good writing skills.

Excellent poem.Very apt imagery to go with it.The lines below are very well-written.

See her standing, shoulders down
her blond hair, blowing free?

I like the fact that the blowing free ended with a question mark. Nothing about drug abuse gives freedom.The author notes were very helpful.Well done!

So many lost souls these days. Drugs and the drug culture surrounding them are taking over many of our youth. There's so much despondency out there, and yes, there's parents who just aren't there when they're needed most.
Girls are especially vulnerable, and therefore targeted - but young males can also fall into the trap.
A great write, m'dear.
Rose.
