I watch you ingest your poison
Loving the feelings of the buzz
Melting through your veins
I have sat in awe of your beauty
The music, poetry floating over me
One more substance, layers of youth
You have less than me
And always have
You want them all to be happy
You're beautiful
You really love people
You kept me safe, alive last night
How I wish you knew life
How I wish someone could show you
How I hate these poisons that kill you
I witness your greatness and tragedy
Mixed together in harmony
And love you just the same
Don't mind me
I have seen too much
The testimony chokes my throat
Play me another song
I can get lost in the music
Until you're poisoned again
