Intoxicated
By: Stephanie MacDonald
​
I'm smoking like a cigarette
Inhaling my own death
Chewing on this rat poison
I'm taking my last breath
I'm drinking like a dying fish
Sinking to the ocean's floor
Injecting like a drug addict
"But I only need one more"
I'm crazy like a mental house
Sitting and talking to myself
I'm greedy like a celebrity
Snorting up all of my wealth
I see like bloodshot eyes
Looking through pink tinted glass
I'm thinking like a lesson plan
But I can never pass the test
I'm burning like a forest fire
Charred black right to the bone
I'm paranoid like a hermit
That lives and dies alone
Inside I'm like a glacier
Strong and cold, still melts with heat
I'm put together like a puzzle
Very far from being complete
