A Day on the Street

Addicts Hell

By Tina VenturaPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

A story about a day in my life on the streets of Boston

It’s dirty and mean and to others unseen

Needles on the ground,crack smoke obscene

Find a way to tuck away pain, here to stay

Dealers all-around finding those who will pay

The users scamming their very last friend

Needle in the neck will this be the end

A gun a knife maybe even some mace

Defend my honor but I might catch a case

Police turn a blind eye, so take a hit right here

They will do their job and stand and stare

The girls run around in circles to make only a dime

The guys stand await to profit from girls crime

Being an addict through and through

On the ground again lips are blue

The streets will turn you into one hundred percent whore

Going around and round till you can’t do no more

There is no happy, there are no friends

No one to tell no letters to send

On this ominous trip

To see how low you will dip

If your broke your screwed,if your not you will be

Blind to the game on the streets you cant see

The hell you are in invisible now

Give it a year,and its obvious how

A day on the street, a night in the cold

Is not the way one wants to grow old
