“Cocaine” Cocaine, A silent but deadly killer; Entering your body through your nose, Causing an illusion of bliss to form in your mind, As your body slowly starts to decompose- It starts as a mere high; then your cravings get bigger, Your dependency gets stronger as your body becomes thinner- It kills you on the inside and slowly works it’s way out, Destroying your family, your dreams, and what your life used to be about- It took only $20 for that 20 minute high, However, when you’re coming down; falling Uncontrollably Your high becomes rock bottom- Tearing away at your body; it eats you alive- You look in the mirror to see your reflection; But no one is looking back on the other side. |

Ghost - I especially like the last lines - the looking back at nothing - great thematic consistency. |
