Giving In (Inspired by Crank by Ellen Hopkins)

I look at you.
Suddenly,
as if by magic
I am totally willing to forfeit
all will to my new god.
You are going to
save me from
my life.
The pain I have inside
will be taken away by
your smile.
You are asking me to do
drugs
and for some reason,
I can't say no.
The task was so easy weeks
ago,
but now
it is nearly impossible.
The words to give in are on my tongue.
So, I lean over
sniff the white powder,
and fly.
