I Am Crystal Meth
I am starting a category of meth related art and poems here. I will start with this one I got in my email quite a while ago. There are so many talented artists that have been affected by this drug – If you have any art, poems etc you would like to share, let me know!
Hello.
You may or may not know me.
I destroy homes.
I tear families apart,
I’ll take your children and that is just the start.
I’m more precious the diamonds, more valued then gold.
The sorrows I bring are a sight to behold.If you need me I’m easily found
I’m all around you in every city and every town.
I live with the rich I live with the poor.
I live down the street even next door.I’m made in a lab just not the kind you think,
I can be made under the kitchen sink.
I can be made in the closet or in the woods.
If this doesn’t scare you to death it certainly should.
I have many names but one you’d know best
My name is Crystal meth.My powers are awesome just try me and see.
Try me twice and your soul will belong to me.
Once I possess you, you’ll steal and you’ll lie
You’ll do what it takes just to get high.
The crimes you’ll commit for the high and fame
Will be worth millions once I get in your veins.You’ll lie to your mom and steal from you dad,
When you see their tears you won’t even be sad.
You’ll forget your morals and how you were raised,
Once I teach you my worthless ways.I’ll take your friends, your control, your pride,
But I’ll always be with you right by your side.
You’ll give up your friends, your family, your home,
When you run out you’ll be all alone.
I’ll take and I’ll take till there’s nothing to give,
And when I’m through you’ll be lucky to live.You can try me for fun but I’m no game.
Giving the chance I’ll drive you insane.
I’ll give you nightmares while you lie sweating in bed.
I’ll be the evil voices inside you head.You shouldn’t have tried me how many times were you told?
But you challenged my powers how could you have been so bold?
You couldn’t say no, and just walked away.
If you could do it all over again what would you say?I’ll be you master you’ll be my slave.
Don’t fear being lonely I’ll walk with you to your grave.
I’ll show you more pain then your deepest betrayal
So come take my hand as I lead you to HELL.Written by Alicia VanDavis
Just for the record, doing meth doesn’t mean you will go to hell. I bring this up because a teenager asked me after reading this “if I do drugs will I go to hell?” and I explained from my own understanding of what the author is saying that “doing meth will make your life a living hell”. It’s a poem so it’s of course open to interpretation.
What’s your interpretation?

It’s a shit poem but it does raise awareness. I saw it in some school work that I do which is about addiction.
Okay perhaps not a shit poem, just not my cup of tea-poem.

Only 8% of people stay clean of this drug!!! In 2005 i was completely hooked on Crystal Meth! i lost everything, friends, family and the most important person in my life… my little girl. when they took her i dwelled in self pitty for months until i couldnt bare the pain anymore. I enrolled my self in a drug treatment program where i spent a lot of time cleaning up. I am proud to say I have been clean for 32 months and continue to battle this addiction. I have my little girl back and lead a healthy life style! This poem helps me stay clean, if i ever think about it I read this poem and remember the nightmare it helped me make. I would like to thank the woman that wrote this poem may she rest in peace!!! My prayers go out to all the addicts and recoverind addicts… GOD BLESS!!!!

HOW COULD PEOPLE DO DIS S@#%!!!!!!!!!!!!HU EVA DOES DIS IS, I CANT EXPLAIN U JUST GROSS!!!!!!!!!U TEACHING CHILDREN THE WRONG THING AE NOT GUD!
wow were did you get this poem? me and my friend that i was locked up with made this poem from scratch.we put our talents of poetry to tell the truth of our past experinces. this poem must have been past down over and over,like telephone.it doesnt sound as good as my original copy..which was stolen frm me by the way.i hate when ppl take credit frm other pples art.
This poem has been doing the rounds on the internet for years and is posted all over the place. It's become a sort of cult favorite among meth users and survivors. It's very well written and if you are the original author, then you did a great job.
THis is a great poem, my sister has been sober for a few months now, she is doing great, I called her and read her this poem and she asked me to send her a copy so that she can share it at her AA and NA meetings.
Have a great day
this is a cool poem! and its true. i love it. i even sent it to all of my friends!
i think that this poem is very interesting and i am glad that someone is taking the effect of meth seriosly . just like in the poem meth isnt a game dont even do it “just once” it will ruin your life you have no idea
I am a survivor of METH and its DEADLY ADDICTION I spent 10yrs on meth and 3yrs in ad seg in tx prisons Today I have my kids again almost two years OUT and CLEAN! I know God Has been the change in me REMEMBERING I can do better for my kids! So can U! 28 yo Single Mom in Aiustin tX
Hi m.y life is a story of hope also im a recoveing meth addict & artist.I'm glad more people are talking about this problem.There is hope I'm living proof. GOD made a big change in my life .I tried several times on my own & only made it a year at a time but since I found Jesus I've broke that record by 6mo. I'm going to send some of my art
this poem is so true it leaves you with a real perspective on meth
Jill, my name is Rob Cowan, you probably used to think very badly of me, I think about Austin all the time. I am not trying to bring up bad memories but I just want you to know that I have been clean for almost 4 years, I am so sorry for your loss please tell Natalie I am so sorry for the way I acted in 2001. I was a very different person then, an addict. Austin and I have some weird kind of connection, I speak to him in my mind often and I ask him for some kind of sign to let me know he hears me and I get it in some sort of way. I am so glad I had the priveledge to be friends with Austin, thank you for bringing him into this world. As long as this website lives he lives in everyone who reads it. Austins friend, Rob Cowan
I miss you buddy ,keep sending me those goosebumps when I think of you.
i love this its soo freaking true i dont see how people do it but u know we cant do anything about it!!!! they have to help themselves first before we can help them!!!

TRUE TRUE TRUE.THANKS TO MY DAUGHTER I LEFT A SMALL TOWN AND GOT AWAY FROM THAT CRAZY CRAZY STUFF.I THANK HER AND GOD EVERYDAY.NOW I WOULD LIKE TO SEE 2 OF MY SONS PUT IT AWAY FOR GOOD BE4 ITS TOO LATE.
I am 21years old. I am a recovering drug addict, i have been clean now for two years. This poem could never be more true Crystal Meth steals your soul and drives a person away from God. the Crystal is the devil in disguise and will make you do things that you could never imagine. To all the teenagers out there do not go down that road. May our loving God and saviour be with you!

Here is a poem I wrote about meth. It's called
The Cook
There are only a few who know the trade – How methamphetamine is made. They live their lives always on the run – Just waiting for the next batch to be done. Peeking around corners in fear of a bust – As they’re bright shinny dreams crumble to dust. Women who are only driven by lust. Whose only desire is the crystal white dust? Everyone wants a piece of the pie – So C'mon man, let's get high! But once there up, they only wig out – Leaving their minds to treachery and doubt. And the cook's well aware of their grief – Of knowing his friends are only thieves. Either caught in the act or burned in a deal – By supposed friends designing what is real. There's only one way a cook can win – And that by having a partner who is true to the end. In a true partner who is strong at heart – Exists a bond that none can part. Together weeding out the crooks, cops – Lowlife's, backstabbers and the lames. Jointly running a business impossible to stop – Blazing a trail straight to the top. But what will it cost you for the Great Life? Nothing much – just you’re family, home, friends and your life. There's nothing on Earth that's worth such a cost – Not to mention all the time that you spent in prison that you've lost. So, once you get there don't forget what it took… To Be The Man who knows how to cook.
Written by me in Folsom Prison
This poem couldn't be more accurate I am a recovering addict…8 months going strong!
my brother has just recently fell to meths evil wrath. It's hard to see him going through this. Especially since my father is a police officer, he's torn that he has a person that he'd put in prison for years living in his own home.
It's an amazing poem. My health teacher read it to us and I think it's the best poem I've ever heard. Though I strongly agree, that drugs are for losers (:

Hello.
You may or may not know me.
I destroy homes.
I tear families apart,
I’ll take your children and that is just the start.
I’m more precious the diamonds, more valued then gold.
The sorrows I bring are a sight to behold.
If you need me I’m easily found
I’m all around you in every city and every town.
I live with the rich I live with the poor.
I live down the street even next door.
I’m made anywhere and everywhere you can think,
I can be made under the kitchen sink.
I can be made in the closet or in the woods.
If this doesn’t scare you to death it certainly should.
I have many names but only one you would need
Simply put, they call me Weed.
My powers are awesome just try me and see.
Try me twice and your soul will forever flee.
Once I possess you, you’ll steal and you’ll lie
You’ll do what it takes just to get high.
The crimes you’ll commit for the high and fame
Will be worth millions once I get in your veins.
You’ll lie to your mom and steal from your dad,
When you see their tears you won’t even be sad.
You’ll forget your morals and how you were raised,
Once I teach you my worthless ways.
I’ll take your friends, your control, your pride,
But I’ll always be with you right by your side.
You’ll give up your friends, your family, your home,
When you run out you’ll be all alone.
I’ll take and I’ll take till your brain is completely fried,
And when I’m through you’ll be depressed and only cry.
You can try me for fun but I’m no game.
Giving the chance I’ll drive you insane.
I’ll give you nightmares while you lie sweating in bed.
I’ll be the evil voices inside you head.
You shouldn’t have tried me how many times were you told?
But you challenged my powers how could you have been so bold?
You couldn’t say no, and just walked away.
If you could do it all over again what would you say?
I’ll be your master you’ll be my slave.
Don’t fear being lonely I’ll walk with you to your grave.
So come, take my hand
Or that of any CONTRABAND
Any of us will show you more pain than your deepest betrayal
Any of us will take your life and ensure that you fail.
brilliant!!!!
an awsome poem
