There was once a girl full of hope. A girl that woke up every morning and looked forward to what the day was going to bring. This girl was full of potential. She was clever, funny and beautiful. She was exciting. She brought passion to everything she did. She enjoyed life. She realised you only had one chance and you had to enjoy it while you could. This girl was young, she could of done anything. She wasn't alone in the world, she had a family that loved her very much. Her Mum was her best friend, they were inseparable. So alike, both to look at and in manner, a mirror image of each other. Each image filled with love. This girl had younger sisters, they looked up to her, strived to be like her and in turn this girl looked after them as if they were her own. She wiped each tear, gave reassuring hugs, and advice filled with wisdom far beyond her years. This girl had friends, lots of friends, people were drawn to her charm and kindness. So what happened to this perfect girl?
As I mentioned before she was popular, everyone wanted to be around her. You'd meet her and be instantly won over by her easy going laid back ways. people built her up to be some great person, and she felt she had to live up to it. She wasn't allowed to be unhappy, to show frustration that the world wasn't so perfect. She had to stay strong, for everyone else. This girl was innocent. Blind to the fact not everyone was as good as she was. She took everyone at face value. Trusted them, befriended them. She was like any normal young girl, she wanted love, and love found her. Girl met boy. Girl fell in love with boy. It was a fairytale. This boy was almost as perfect as she was. and they fell in love, and became one. So what happened to this perfect girl, who found her perfect boy?
This girl loved people with no fear, she didn't hold back. She wasn't scared of being hurt. She was open, she trusted people. It must be wonderful to look at the world like that. Just open to what it could offer you. The world isn't honest, the world can and will take advantage of you. This girls love, who she adored more than anything. He found life tough. He realised way before her that the world was a tough place to live in. He realised all his dreams, his hopes, he would have to work damn hard to reach them. Nothing was going to hold him back. Disappoinment, after disappointment came his way. He still had his perfect girl, who loved him unconditionally. his friends saw him struggle, and they saw this couple hurt, be changed by the harsh realities of life. The girl still had hope, for her life was blessed. She still saw the beauty in the world, she still woke up each day looking forward to what life would bring her way. the boy was getting lost, he was losing hope. His friends saw this. They offered him an escape. Each drug he took, took him to another place. A place where everything was good. a place where he had hope, it was easy to get to, but more difficult to escape. So what happened to this perfect girl, who found her perfect boy, who found his perfect drug?
Times were hard. The boy changed. She loved him all the same, but his love for her was more dull. His emotions weren't real. He felt nothing. The drug was inside him. Taking him over. The girl was in pain. The world was slowly breaking her. The girl was loved though, she couldn't be broken, she was strong. She was perfect. Her love, her boy, she had to watch him hurt himself. Slowly she started to see the world through his eyes. She saw the pain, the torment, the hopelessness of it all. The boy loved her deeply, he wanted to make her better, and just as his caring friends had done for him, he offered her an escape, the hope, the feeling of goodness. So what happened to this perfect girl, who found her perfect boy, who found their perfect drug?
She changed. He changed. The world changed. Her life was no longer about living, it was about finding her next fix, it was about finding her escape, stopping the pain. Each day she woke up, and all she wanted to do was lay there, sleep the day away, crawl out, find her fix and return to her beloved, They hurt those that loved them. Who tried to reach out and pull them out of the depths of hell. They didn't want to be saved, they didn't want to be helped. This drug had a hold on them. It wasn't about to let go. They lost their friends, they lost their family, they lost everything. So what happened to this perfect girl, who found her perfect boy, who found their perfect drug?
She lost her life, he lost his love and his drug.
