Broken Opiate Heart
By Awesomeshiloh
I never realized that my life would end
That day
But
I know I'm only one syringe
From ending all my pain
I
don't think that I can live this way
It's just to hard
Maybe I'll just end my life today
With a needle in my vein
My last goodbye
With bloodshot, pin-prick eyes
I'm lying
on my back
Wishing that I could still be
With a needle in my
vein
Still alive
I don't wanna die
I~I~I~
Wish you
were still here with me
I never thought that I'd turn into this
Dope fiend
But there's nothing that I want to miss
So I just try to sing
Living now is what is killing me
I wanna die
Dieing's my new beginning
To just see in
your eyes
My last goodbye
With bloodshot, pin-prick
eyes
I'm lying on my back
Wishing that I could still be
With
a needle in my vein
Still alive
I just wanna die
I~I~I~
Wish you were still here with me
Author's Note:
I wrote this song to the tune of "pain" by jimmy eats world. I also wrote it right after I buried my best friend from a heroin OD and my fiance from a brain anuerysm just 6 months apart and just being only 7months out of prison.Comments on "Broken Opiate Heart"

Your combination of phrases describes the situation... but I'm not sensing the desperation, pain, or bitterness. The repetition of simple words gives this a definite layman feel, but don't be afraid to go all-out with emotional rage. It seems like you're dulling it down to be.. polite, almost. Also, watch the spelling errors.

thanks, and you couldn't be more right. i wrote it initially for it to be printed in the church handout for the funeral. :) i'm also waiting for the next time the poetry course on this site is offered, so i can better form my thoughts into written word.
