Sad, But True

I had a friend.... A best friend at that. I don't know where she is anymore. I can practically see right through her now. She's there; standing right in front of me. But it's like she's lost her soul, there's nothing much left to her. She's in a constant daze and unsure on what's going on. She asks simple questions now, like "What was I doing again?". Things she should already know; things she shouldn't have to ask. She works to support her habit. Her money goes down the drain; a drain to her lungs. I don't confide in her anymore. I don't update her on my life either. We used to spend a lot of time together; non-stop talking, sharing our thoughts, having a good time, constant laughter..... But that hasn't happened for several months now. We can't share things like we used to. She doesn't support me and my choices in life; like a friend should do. She doesn't like my boyfriend... She's more straight forward and ignorant now. She's letting her life slip past her, with every breath she takes.

I can only wish that one of these days, she'll wake up and realize what she's doing to herself, her life, her future, her friends -- before it's too late.... If it's not already.

I miss her. But I can't do this anymore. I can't watch this happen...

A friendship left behind, 'cause of a simple plant. Sad, but true.

Drugs take control... But only when you let it.

She chose the drugs over her friendship.

.....What is this world coming to?
