Slam Poem

Not very good at this poem stuff...but I decided to write about our world's war on drugs because I lost a friend due to this awful problem in society, and it makes me think about her everytime drugs is brought up in situations. 
 
I have no reason to see you anymore
You shut the blinds, closed me out, then shut the door
How could you let this come between us?
Betrayal is always sad
Needless to say what you could have had
Of course you have it still
But based on a lie that you always will
Repeat till it clings true
I've been lied to by the likes of you
From that point of view
I get the privilege to enlighten you
You lied to me when we were at our strongest
I can't believe I thought you were being completly honest

On what I'm doing to help her
She needs some shelter
And if you've felt her loyalty what can you do?

Will you keep this up,
As long as you can if I don't make it stop?
I don't have a clue
Just tell me the truth
Who are you really?
Are you the friend that I've know since kindergarden?
Of what you are about to do
Would you fool me too?
I've been lied to by the likes of you
From that point of view
I get the privilege to enlighten you
 
I lost you on the war against drungs
All you really needed was a great big hug
Why does our world keep putting out these narcotics?
It pulls families and friends a part
Like a bullet piercing my heart
You dropped outa school
You cut me outa your life
I Don't ever want you to call me again
But please do I'll always be here for you

On what I'm doing to help her
She needs some shelter
And if you've felt her loyalty what can you do?

I'm trying to help her
She needs some shelter
And if you've felt her loyalty what can you do?

  1. Amazing! This is really good! This one of the topics I was actually thinking of doing.
    I’ve felt all the feelings that you wrote and even feelings of being in the exact place of someone you care deeply about. The part you wrote “I don't ever want you to call me again, But please do I'll always be here for you” that is what really did it for me.
