A Poem I Hope Will Help.that We Read Today

This is a poem from a guy In prison who is doing time for METH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The Title Is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!( I'M CRYSTAL METH )
I DESTROY HOMES,TEAR FAMILES APART
I'LL TAKE YOUR CHILDREN , AND THIS IS JUST THE START
MORE VALUED THAN DIAMONDS,MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD
THE SORROWS I BRING ,ARE A SIGHT TO BEHOLD
IF YOU NEED ME ,I'M EASILY FOUND
I LIVE IN THE COUNTRY ,AND I LIVE IN TOWN
I LIVE WITH THE RICH ,I LIVE WITH THE POOR
I LIVE DOWN THE STREET ,MAYBE EVEN NEXT DOOR
I'M MADE IN A LAB,BUT NOT HOW YOU THINK
I CAN EVEN BE MADE UNDER YOUR KITCHEN SINK
UP IN THE ATTIC,OR OUT IN THE WOODS
DOES THIS SCARE YOU TO DEATH, IT CERTAINLY SHOULD
I HAVE MANY NAMES,BUT ONE YOU KNOW BEST
IF YOU HAVEN'T FIRGURED IT OUT ,IT'S ME CRYSTAL METH!!!!
MY POWER IS AWESOME,TRY ME YOU'LL SEE
ONCE YOU DO ,YOU MAY NEVER BE FREE
TRY ME ONCE,I MAY LET YOU GO
TRY ME TWICE,I'LL BE IN YOUR SOUL
WHEN YOU'RE UNDER MY POWER,YOU'LL STEAL AND LIE
YOU'LL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES JUST TO GET HIGH....!!!!!!!!!
OH,THE CRIMES YOU'LL DO, FOR MY NEUROTIC CHARM
IS IT WORTH THE PLEASURE,TO STICK ME IN YOUR ARM
YOU'LL LIE TO YOUR MOM,AND STEAL FROM YOUR DAD
AND WHEN YOU SEE THERE PAIN,
YOU WON'T EVEN FEEL BAD!!
YOU'LL FORGET YOUR MORALS AND HOW YOU WERE RAISED
I'LL BE YOUR CONSCIENCE ,I'LL TEACH YOU MY WAYS
I'LL BLOW INTO YOUR TOWN , WITH THE STRONGEST OF WINDS
I'LL TAKE KIDS FROM PARENTS AND SERARATE FRIENDS
I'LL TAKE EVERYTHING FROM YOUR LOOKS TO YOUR PRIDE.
I'LL BE WITH YOU AWAYS RIGHT BY YOUR SIDE
I'LL TAKE IT ALL,TILL THERES NOTHING LEFT TO GIVE
BY THE TIME I'M FINISHED ,YOU WON'T EVEN WANT TO LIVE
IF YOU TRY ME BE WARNED,I AM NOT A GAME
IF YOU GIVE ME A CHANCE,I'LL DRIVE YOU INSANE......
OH THE NIGHTMARES I'LL GIVE YOU,LYING IN BED
THE VOICES YOU'LL HEAR ,INSIDE YOUR HEAD
THE SWEATS,THE SHAKES,THE VISIONS YOU'LL SEE
THEY'REALL LITTLE GIFTS YOU'LL BE RECEIVING FROM ME
BY THEN IT'S TO LATE ,YOU'LL KNOW IN YOUR HEART
THAT YOU BELONG TO ME,AND WE'LL NEVER PART
YOU'LL REGRET YOU EVER TRIED ME THEY AIWAYS DO...
SO THINK TWICE,MY FRIEND IF SOMEONE HANDS ME TO YOU!!!!!



(tHIS IS WRITTEN FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT NEED HELP...I SEEN MY SISTER CRY OVER THIS POEM TONIGHT I THINK IT MIGHT CAN HELP YOU!!!!!!!THIS IS WHAT THIS TERRIBLE DRUG WILL DO........PLEASE GET HELP FROM SOEMONE .........YOUR FRIEND LITTLEANGELGIRL
I liked that poem alot because I am a user and agree very much.
It turns you into the worstes person you possibly can be.
I regret trying it, since I messed up in life by disrespecting everyone that means something to me in life. I lost myself but I will get out. It's made me suffer and left me with sad eyes.
I really enjoyed this poem. I am married to a meth addict & I emailed it to my husband. I really hope he takes the time to read it. I am having A very difficult time dealing with this addiction. He was suppose to enter a rehab program on Tuesday & he told me that it was my decision and he never oked it. HE DID. He just doesnt remember ( loss of memory). He tells me that he knows, he needs help and he will do it himself. What am I suppose to do til then? I have called our priest for guidness--I can't stand to see him committting suicide in front of the kids or myself. I have told him that we ( his kids & wife) will support & love him.
Well i never used meth but this poem really grabbed my attation. I'm a heroin addict. This poem is so true no matter what drug, the ends are all the same. Best of luck to all who struggle, and to those who can find there way out.

Thank you for this poem it gave me some insight, I just found out my girlfriend has been finding from me that she uses meth, I myself also have an addiction but mine is pain pills, I am getting help with mine and she feels she can deal with this herself. I pray everyday for us and that we can make it through this very rough time in our lives but most of all I want to understand and help my girlfriend but I'm just unsure how much help I can really be to her. My addiction as only been a short time as hers as been many years. She says she used more about five years ago then she uses now, but I don't feel that makes much difference, she has a addiction and stopping it makes it will be just as hard. If anyone has any advice that can help me understand her addiction and how I can help her I would be very greatful........ Thank you

I want to thank for your poem I made a copy and will pass it out to all the schools and try and educate everyone, about this horrible drug. I had no Idea about the drug Meth
Until my nephew got mixed with kids that told him to try it, you will love it. No NO BIG DEAL and he said that
once he started using he couldn't get away from the horrible cravings when
he tried to stop on hIS own. He though it would be like smoking pot Just do it occasionaly and no big deal well you are so right Meth is a big deal and
parents please listen This is the worst drug known to mankind
I can't tell enough people how deadly Meth is. My nephew was 14 when he started using and he is now 15 using for 8 months and already the effects of Meth have killed his brain cells the nephew is having a very hard time with short term memory.Part of the problem with your brain cells being effected is that your brain at the age of 14, 15 is still in the development stages your brain isn't fully developed until you are about age 21 If you have a loved, please try to get them help. Try and get them into Rehab They can't do it on their own its to powerful of a drug

God Bless you for your poem, and everyone else who has a family member using Meth


Thank You Again

Awesome Poem. I guess all you have time to do in prision is think about your own life and all that it involves. Too bad we can't do that at home, huh?
Thanks for sharing his poem. My thoughts are with the one's sitting in prision just because they we're influenced to encounter a "good feeling". We all are aware of the consequences of our actions when we make bad decisions. It's so very sad that meth. takes over your conscience being without you even being aware of it. Sounds strange to someone who's never been through the experience as "we" know. Now how can we take the whole experience of being 'captured and released' by this drug...and scare it into all those who are introduced to it for the first time? To me...it would probably be like trying to explain to a blind person what green is.
When I read the poem it made me cry, it sounds so much like my son who is a meth user.He,s onley 19 years old. he,s lost 100 lbs in the last year his hair is falling out, he was in jail for meth when I read the poem I copped it and sent it to him,he said it was all true that's how meth was. Now he's been out of jail for a week and he's back on it again.If he goes back to jail he'll be in there for 4or 5 years.He knows that but it still do,es stop him,he has aready over dosed and about died, then with to a rehabid does any one out ther know what I should do to help him?He is my oldest son his Dad over dosed and died when he was just 7 years old,and I'm so afraid it's going to happen to him to. It's 3 o clock in the morning and I can't sleep I dont know were hs is or if he,s allrigth Ive spent many nights like this,but I LOVE HIM TO DEATH .Some body tell me what to do he uses every day. loving mom who wants her son back
thanks for the poem lilangelgirl.

Help - Try and talk to your son about his habit and figure out how much trouble he is in. Get him in rehab if you can. Does he live with you? Can you go on a long holiday or move away? Getting away from the trigger can help heaps, if you can't, rehab or n/a may be able to help or church and counselling. him knowing you are hurting will help him too. hope it all works out for you both.

Mzmisste-this is for anybody though.
It is me, your friend. This poem you sent me is very true. I have been addicted to meth and now I am addicted to crack. i went from being an alcoolic to a meth head and now i am a crack head. I just don't really know how to get out other then moving in with my parents since my marriage is over. Please keep your head up. I will be there for you if you ever need me, although i can't stay here in this town any more and i need to leave in order to get away from the stuff that I can't seem to say no to. maybe when i am better and free from my addictions, I can come back. I just got out of the hospital. another suicide attempt. Well at least a threat, but I could not stay in the hospital because i dont have insurance. I do miss you, please get help. I do care very much about you.
Hi Guys,
That poem was awesome. I hope the guy that wrote it takes it to heart, gets out of prison and makes a productive life for himself. Myself, I've never done meth, but decided to post here. We recently moved to AZ from WI and met a nice couple (our sons are friends) and this couple (the wife) has a brother that did alot of meth. He's around 40, and altought doesn't do it anymore, is so screwed up. He sits there and jerks, he's on a ton of meds, he hardly makes sense and its just really sad what this horrible drug does. We were over there last Friday, the kids and me and he was there. Nice enough guy, but totally screwed up (permanently) from this stuff. He makes sense one minute, the next, he's talking to himself. I really felt for him. My kids and I had a long talk when we got home and I used him as an example of what will happen if they choose to use drugs. I hope that scared them and made them think. I mean this is a relatively young man and his life is ruined. He can never work again, he can't even be left alone for very long. Its just sad. Anyway, great poem and my prayers are with all you guys struggling, please don't let this happen to you, prison, or what I had to see this poor man going thru for the rest of his life.
God Bless.........Briar
I just did a search on most viewed posts of all time and thought I'd bump some of them up (ones that weren't locked and ones that had no recent posts) cause I figure they gotta be informative or interesting to get so many hits. :o)
