An Abrupt Stop by Brandy Bryant
You started out with promise
You started out with hope
Until all your dreams were canceled
by a substance called dope
You dropped into a depression
you could not climb out
because you were under the assumption
dope would help you out
Now your life is over
it is the procession to cry
why should someone so young have to die?
That is a question I have no right to ask
but it seems as though things change oh so fast
So my friend if you hear me
please understand
there were people who loved you
you did not comprehend
You started out with hope
Until all your dreams were canceled
by a substance called dope
You dropped into a depression
you could not climb out
because you were under the assumption
dope would help you out
Now your life is over
it is the procession to cry
why should someone so young have to die?

there were people who loved you

I knew this guy who was very special. He had a lot of family problems and he thought that they could be solved by drugs. Drugs drove him to taking his life. I want others to read and absorb these words and realize the true danger of drugs.

hi, this poem has touched me because my older brother recently has been hooked on methamphetamines. i dont beleive in self mutalation, drugs seem to be the most painless way of doing it and dealing with whats happening around them. im grateful that my family and i got him out of it before it was to late. however i have lost alot of friends in the last 8 months to suicides due to drug habbits. i feel your pain :] - sarah |

I think it understands me well. I'm going through alot of things right now and so are my friends. We just wanted to clear our heads and figured that dope would help. But as dope fadded away the pain was still there. And than realized that we can drug ourselves and avoid the problem but as we get sober the problem is there waiting. - Cassandra |
