Who am I?

Does anyone want me?

NEGLECT

I FEEL neglect

I am NEGLECT...NEGLECTED

By who?

Everyone

 

No one likes me

No one wants me

Not even my parents want me or love me, all they do is……...ABUSE me

 

I am only 14

Why me?  What did I ever do?

I don’t deserve this...no one does

Where is my way out of the misery?

The misery of NEGLECT

 

Is there something that can make me feel wanted?

Or maybe even someone who will make me feel wanted?

But no...no one likes me...

 

DRUGS?  Is that the answer?

This has got to be the way? There’s only one way to see…..  try it?

It makes me feel something, a feeling like no other

 

Something I've never felt before……..  ACCEPTANCE!

But is this the only way?

I need someone, a friend, someone to BOND with, someone to TALK to,

Someone who will LISTEN to me, SUPPORT me, HELP me!

 

Drugs is my only FRIEND, the only thing that accepts me for……………..me,

The only thing that loves me as much as i love it

We have become very close, almost as if we were best friends, If only it were a person

 

Maybe drugs is a trend for me

It sets me FREE from all the MISERY

NEGLECT is a pain,

That comes with huge gain

 

My drug USE turns to drug ABUSE

Do all teens do this or is it just me?

I can't be the only one

If only I could find someone like me

A FRIEND, a friend to bond with me, talk to me, listen to me, support me, help me

We can fight the drug abuse problem TOGETHER

We won’t stand alone in our decisions

We support each other, we help each other

 

Teens and drugs seem to fit perfectly together

But there is always a way out

 

DRUGS?

Drugs is NOT the way out

There is HELP for EVERYONE

Never doubt a friend, There the BEST kind of help

FRIENDS DO MATTER!

LEND A HAND TO A TEEN DRUG ABUSER...YOU NEVER KNOW THEIR STORY!
