Why? by Kara
The smell of the just smoked joint,
Intoxicates my lungs.
My boyfriend pulls me closer to him.
I pull back and look deep into his blood shot eyes.
Does he think I wouldnt notice?
Does he think I wouldnt care?
As he tries to kiss my fatal lips,
I smell the mint he tried to use to cover up.
The pot is too strong and overpowers the mint,
And the cologne his body is smothered in.
A single tear flows down my cheek.
I wonder why he is doing this.
He told me he has stopped and it hurts.
It hurts that he lied.
It hurts that he had the nerve to show up,
Acting and looking high.
What if he gets addicted to drugs?
What if one day he O.D.s?
I turn around and run into the darkness.
Im sorry my love,
Im sorry my friend,
Im sorry I dont
Understand.
Please tell me

This is a poem that my friends and I can relate to. It is an experience I hate and have gone through more than once, with more than one boyfriend - but it happens. It's not that I have never tried drugs myself, but people who abuse them or lie about taking them, are what I have a problem with.

I voted for this poem as I can really relate to what the poet is writing. I was in a long-term relationship 3 yrs ago when I was young and naive to drugs. My fiance used to think he had one-up on me because if this naivity, until I soon learnt his ways. It does hurt when someone treats you like that, no1 deserves it no matter what - vicky |

The reason why I like this poem is because my boyfriend smokes weed and I asked him to stop but he did not. Everytime I see him and he is high he tries to hide it but i see it in his eyes I love him to death and im going to help him through this addiction even if it takes my life to do it. - Porsha |
