Just one more line of coke...
Just one more needle poke...

This leads to one more.

One more blurry night's bliss...
One more meaningless kiss...

Just one more.

Just one more dick to suck...
Just one more stranger to fuck...

Always only once more.

Just another "Who cares it's my life I'm wasting"
As you grab another beer, so far beyond tasting.

And I scream that I love you.
I see your face start turning blue.

But all you wanted was just one more,
And that's when I saw you hit the floor.

When finally that last time came,
It was your picture I saw in the frame.

The eulogy was short and concise,
We all just remembered when you were nice...

This is what you do to the people you love when you let drugs get the best of you. Plain and simple. I can understand to a certain degree... but this shit can kill you. Stop while you still have the chance. I'm pretty much to the point of begging, big surprise, huh?

A grim topic, but the poem was good. The "just once more" repetition effectively captured the addiction, I think. The flow of the poem was good, though it's slightly broken by the last line. A bit too many syllables in contrast with the line above--you could either shorten that one or lengthen the one above. Personally, I'd omit the "used to be" and replace it with "were." I'd also possibly cut out the "just;" it seems kind of randomly thrown in there.

So, it'd be something like "We all remember when you were nice."

It's your poem, though. Definitely don't take my word as the absolute necessity or anything.

I think that flows alot better, thank you! I couldn't quite figure out what to do with that line... so thank you very much!

God never give us more than we can handle, but I think he assumes I'm stronger than what I really am.

I like this. jk. I LOVE THIS. It's so effective and now I feel that I need to talk to u about something. This relates a little too well to my life as of today. technically yesterday since it is 12:32 am here. anywho, back to the poem. I don't think the ending did your poem justice. It isn't quite effective. It seems like forced rhyme. other than that, it's perfect.
