Chapter 11: Wasteland

Darkness (A book full of poems)Words: 478

In this wasteland

Surrounded by pressure,

With no oxygen tank

I begin to Start Breathing in

carbon dioxide.

Temptation everywhere

I begin to take in more toxic

Things with each measure I walk.

These drugs don't help

The alcohol doesn't numb

With my arms full of scars

From blades and needles, I hide from

The world.

Oh how nothing, nothing helps

With every inch, I'm closer to

Death waiting and screaming

for the next high.

In this wasteland, I remain

In this toxic air, I stay.
