I am a demon...I am your friend....
this was sent to me by a friend. I was told it was written from the perspective of a meth user. Take the time to read it and please feel free to share it. Thank you!
Hello,
my name is DRUGS - I destroy homes, tear families apart, take your
children, and that's just the start. I'm more costly than diamonds, more
costly than gold, the sorrow I bring is a sight to behold. And if you
need me, remember I'm easily found, I live all around you, in schools
and in town. I live with the rich, I live with the poor, I live down the street, and maybe next door. My power is awesome; try me, you'll see. But if you do, you may NEVER break free.
Just try me once and I might let you go, but try me twice, and I'll own
your soul. When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie. You do what
you have to just to get high. The crimes you'll commit, for my narcotic
charms will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in my arms. You'll lie to
your mother; you'll steal from your dad, When you see their
tears, you should feel sad. But you'll forget your morals and how you
were raised, I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways. I
take kids from parents, and parents from kids, I turn people from God,
and separate friends. I'll take everything from you, your looks and your
pride, I'll be with you always, right by your side. You'll give up
everything... your family, your home... your friends, your money, then
you'll be alone. I'll take and take, till you have nothing more to give.
When I'm finished with you you'll be lucky to live. If you try me be
warned --this is no game. If given the chance, I'll drive you insane. I'll
ravish your body; I'll control your mind. I'll own you completely; your
soul will be mine. The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed, the
voices you'll hear from inside your head. The sweats, the shakes, the
visions you'll see; I want you to know, these are all gifts from me. But
then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart, that you are mine,
and we shall not part. You'll regret that you tried me, they always do,
but you came to me, not I to you. You knew this would happen. Many times
you were told, but you challenged my power, and chose to be bold. You
could have said no, and just walked away. If you could live that day
over, now what would you say? I'll be your master; you will be my slave,
I'll even go with you, when you go to your grave. Now that you have met
me, what will you do? Will you try me or not? Its all up to you. I can
bring you more misery than words can tell. Come take my hand, LET ME
LEAD YOU TO HELL.
If you think this could help someone, somewhere, why
don't you do what I have just done and copy and paste--and pass it on!
although you said this is from a meth user...or about one...it can also be said of any drug or booze. It slowly steals everything you have until you have nothing. I read your book, "There but for the Grace of God (plus a few good friends & family) Go I," and the intro that you wrote said almost the same message. I encourage one and all to get that book or the other one that Diane Ganzer Baum co-wrote, "lil girl lost..." and share them with others. The more we speak up about drug and alcohol abuse, the more we can all be a part of the solution.
ReplyDeleteas you said so well, Amber, the sooner we can a part of the solution is when we can all conquer drug and alcohol abuse. There are so many evils in this world...and if we just toss aside everyone who "breaks the moral law"....that leaves them to face life with no real support. These are all of God's children...I am sure he grieves when he sees our world sliding into such pits of despair and I am thinking of how the devil is laughing because he has one more victim with him in hell. Why give the devil that chance to rejoice...am I right?
