sweet angel

you sit there laughing, looking at me like im something new. your eyes bloodshot and your words slurred. you take another hit from your joint and ask me yet again if i want some and i give you the same old "no". i look into your once beautiful crystal blue eyes only to see a foggy shattered dream held together by nothing more than the amount of poison you can inhale. you ask me if i love you but all that comes from me is a tear, my once sweet angel, poisoned by the world. you ask if im alright and i smile and say "im fine" you become serious and look into my eyes as if you were looking for a lost pet. i wipe the tear from my eye and say "im sorry that i was not enough for you" you reply confused asking me what that means, the poison slowly wearing off. i look at you and smile and you start to laugh, my once sweet angel, poisoned by the world, your once crystal blue eyes now a dreadful reminder that you are killing yourself, the way you laugh and pretend its nothing when i am losing more and more of you every day. soon you will die, but death, only a sweet bitter reminder that you were once mine, my once sweet angel poisoned by the world.
