To you my friend
You tell me everything is fine but I see otherwise
I see right through you I know everything is wrong
I don't know when you turned for the worst
Thats why I ask whats wrong
You have become distant and you've hollowed yourself
I don't want you to be like that
I know you are better than that
I knew you as as the person to come in the room and say Hi to everyone and make people smile
Now when you come in, IF you come in you just walk past everyone like they are not there
What happened to you
You keeping to yourself is not helping you and its hurting us
I knew you to be the laughing source to those who needed the laughter
Now you just stare into space eyes hollowed out, sparkle gone, dimpled cheeks flattened
Blank is what I can best describe you as being
I want to know what is wrong with you
Maybe I know what is wrong
No I KNOW what is wrong
I have held this for far too long
I pushed it aside long enough
You say you are happier with yourself
But I know you have beaten yourself up
I cry for you
I really do cry for you
I pray for you
I really do
I want, no I NEED my friend back,
This addiction you have is no good for you nor for me
You hurt me more than you are hurting yourself
Remember when we promised we wouldn't be another statistic?
I am living up to my part of the promise
Its not too late for you
Break the habit, break the addiction, break the drug
Come with me, stay with me, don't give in
Look in the mirror, is this how you want to be remembered?
I don't want this to be your legacy, I know you don't neither
Come with me, break the struggle
Take the shades off and see the light
It's shining now, It's shining bright
Take the shades off look at me, look into the light
You must, you have to, you should want to win this fight
Cause I want you to

I feel you on that. I read Im not afraid. Its was real good.
I was more of a singer back in the day (Im only 17) Now I am more of a writer because I for some reason I feel a connections to other peoples songs but then I don't get the whole connections so I make my own so I feel it all. And its a good stress reliever.

Thanks Imani.
I write poetry a lil bit. I have a lot. I just don't know what to put up here.
I might write songs and put them up here and have y'all listen to some instrumentals to some already made songs with my lyrics.
I don't know. Still debating on it. I don't want any theft going on.
