He offered me a bright red lolli pop
I refused, pleading 'I don't take candy from stangers'
He leant over, kissed me and said 'I guess we're not strangers anymore'
I took the candy and he took my hand

Tonight I realised my best friend is a junkie. I am falling apart and there is nothing I can do.
I will just sit here and cry
