I wrote this peace because I have taken care of young men from the war and it breaks my heart to see what they are doing to themselves


Fight the Demons

You fight the demons in your mind
Using whatever drugs you can find
You say your ok and want to go home
But right now you can't be alone
You use drugs because it numbs your pain
But honestly you have nothing to gain
You fight the demons in your mind
Let people help you in kind
You say your ok
But I say no way
I hate to see someone so young destroy themselves
I wish they would see they need help
But this is when you have to step back
They have to hit bottom before they react
This is not the life you want to lead
You have to Fight the Demons so you can be free

Told in the sad truth that it is. Great thoughts, great feelings,
sad truth, but there is hope in this.

You are completely right about this and it does break your heart to wait. I am so sorry for the young man and for your pain. Addictions of all kinds are heartbreaking. Even worse because its usually the most sensitive that seem to be afflicted.
