Love and Other Fuckups

Narcotics

My mother always warned me about drugs.

About the lasting effects they can have on your life.

My teachers told me about drugs,

About all the different kinds.

I learned the different colors and shapes,

And packaging they come in.

I learned about their different forms.

But no one ever cared to mention,

That the biggest drug of all,

Would be a boy with blonde hair and brown eyes,

Who wouldn't love me back.
