Nightmares

ADDICT....

HI my name is Tracy and I am a drug addict....My drug of choice was heroin...

I started  drinking when I was eleven..smoking weed when I was twelve..Then I met a older guy when I was thirteen

 He busted my cherry and introduced me to heroin.....By the time I was fourteen I was a full fledged junkie...

My older boyfriend had me on the streets selling my ass for both of our drug habits...My mom and dad had given up on me...

But I am here to tell you  I had a god fearing grandmother who never gave up on me..When I was hungry or needed a place to lay my head..My grandmother always opened up her home for me....

It was the love I had for my grandmother that changed my life and got me off of drugs..When I was seventeen my boyfriend and I was dope sick and he wanted us to go rob my grandmother..

I am ashamed to say I was so sick and needed drugs so much I agreed.. when we got there everything went wrong..My grandmother of course let me in her house but when my boyfriend

told her.. to go get us some money ..My dear grandmother refused..That little lady was only five feet two and my boyfriend was six four... but my grandmother stood toe to toe with him..

And refused to give him a dime....My boyfriend started to beat my grandmother he beat her to her knees..My grandmother called on god..I had been standing in a corner in shock and fear..

But when I heard my Grandmother call out for god.. A electric shock went threw my body..I ran Into her kitchen and grabbed a  knife I stabbed my boyfriend over and over...

until my grandmother stopped me...I went to prison for two years  for stabbing him even though I was protecting my grandmother...

.My boyfriend lived..and received eight years in prison for beating my grandmother...I never touched drugs again after that night..I am now twenty-six years old ..I am married to a wonderful man ..I have two kids

that are the joy of my life...I also have a great career as a nurse helping people get off..of drugs..So audience I am here to tell you that if I can do it so can you......

The audience of recovering addicts went wild in the old school gym clapping and shouting some were even crying..A skinny blond teenager was really emotional..

Kim went over to her and laid a gentle hand on her shoulder are you all right hon.. I have never seen you here before.. ..do you need some help...

The blond teen looked at  me with tear filled blue eyes..This is my first time here Mrs. Kim  I am okay..I was just moved by your story.. I was wondering if you could talk to my mom...

She is on heroin to..Yes honey of course I will talk to your mom ..where is she? said Kim looking around the crowed gym..She would not come in ,she is outside in our car waiting for me..said the blond teen

Could you come to the car and talk to her please begged the teen..Kim looked into her pleading eyes and even though she was running late getting home she agreed...Okay but I cant talk long and dont

expect any miracle's some people don't want to hear what I have to say..Oh no said the teen as she lead Kim out of the school gym and into the parking lot up  to a blue van..My Mom is ready to listen

The teen opened up the back of the van..Kim ducked her head in with a compassionate smile on her lips..But her smile froze on her face and the blood in her veins ran cold....Because there was no

Junkie mom sitting in the van..Sitting in the van was her old boyfriend Duke with a huge malicious smile on his face..Hi Kim glad your life has gone so well...

.But I am sorry  that is all coming to a end,Before Kim could scream, run or anything the teen pushed her into the van , closed the door and ran around to the front of the van  and peeled out of  the

parking lot...She was locked into the back of  the van with Duke....Well baby    I have your long lost best friend and with that Duke brought out a needle..

.When Kim saw the needle that's when she started to scream and scream...Two years later.

.The man in the black Volkswagen saw the scrawny  whore on the corner she was not much to look at she had track marks up and down her arms..But it was late and he only wanted a blow job anyway

He pulled up to her..Hey doll   I need a blow job...the old whore looked at him with junkie eyes..A tall skinny man walked out of the shadows.. that will be ten dollars ...  Kim  will  take good care of you...He said with a little smirk on his face...
