A Poem

[Lucifer]

I destroy homes, I tear families apart. I take children and that’s just a start.
I’m more valued than diamonds, more precious than gold.
The sorrow I bring is a sight to behold.
If you need me, remember, I am easily found.
I live all around you, in school and in town.
I live with the rich, I live with the poor.
I live right down the street, maybe even next door.
I’m made in a lab, but not like you’d think.
I can be made in your kitchen sink.
Or in a child’s closet, and even out in the woods.
If this scares you to death, it certainly should.

I have many names, but there’s one you’ll know best.
I’m sure that you heard of me, my name is Crystal Meth.

My powers are awesome. Try me. You’ll see.
But if you do, you may never break free.
Just try me once, I may let you go.
But if you try me twice I’ll own your soul.
When I possess you, you’ll still and you’ll lie.
You’ll do what you have to do, just to get high.
The crimes that you’ll commit for my narcotic charms,
Will be worth the pleasure you’ll feel in my arms.
You’ll lie to your mother, you’ll steal from your dad.
When you see their tears, you must not feel sad.
Just forget your morals, forget how you were raised.
I’ll be your conscious, I’ll teach you my ways.
I take kids from parents, I take parents from kids.
I turn people from God, I’ll separate friends.
I’ll take everything from you, even your good looks and pride,
I’ll be with you always, right by your side.
You’ll give up everything, your family, your home,
Your money, your friends, you’ll be all alone.
I’ll take and take until you have no more to give.
When I’m finished with you, you’ll be lucky to live.
If you try me be warned—THIS IS NOT A GAME!
If I’m giving the chance, I’ll drive you insane.
I’ll ravage your body, I’ll control you mind.
I’ll own you completely, your soul will be mine.

The nightmares I’ll give you when you’re lying in bed,
And the voices you’ll hear from inside your head.
The shakes, the sweats, and the visions you’ll see,
I want you to know, these are gifts from me.
By then it’s too late, and you’ll know in your heart,
That you are now mine, and we shall not part.
You’ll regret that you tried me. They always do…
BUT YOU CAME TO ME, NOT I TO YOU!
You knew this would happen. How many times were you told?
But you challenged my power, you chose to be bold.
You could have said “no.” You could’ve walked away.
If you could live over, now what would you say?
My power is awesome, as I’ve told you before,
I’ll be your master, You’ll do as I say, even when I tell you to go to you grave!
Now that you’ve met me, what will you do?
Will you try me or not? It’s all up to you.

I can show you more misery than words can tell.
Come take my hand….let me lead you to hell.
