Wasted Potential

By TheForgotten

Young boy,

Big heart,

Little joy,


Started drugs

The high

better than hugs,

Replaced the ones

he never got


Absent mom

His life

never calm,

Depressed

Underdressed,

Trying to find hope,

Needing something

to cope


Fake smiles,

In many styles,

Messy hair,

Doesn't care,

Taking coke,

It's not a joke,


He could be so much,

All it takes

is a touch,

So much potential,

And he's wasted it all,

Thrown it away,

Traded it for drugs

again today


Please stop

Before it gets over the top
