Locked in a Substance

(another poem ages later, like , comment, , share, this is an extended version)
One needle prick to ruin your life,
one breath closer to not breathing,
one puff closer to death.
It takes once to make it twice.
Stop for the better,
Start in vain,
End in pain.
The feeling, is it worth the loss?
Numbing the ocean of hazard,
To bring on a tsunami of loss.
Powders, rolls and syringes,
to jam life's hinges.
One time can lead to one hundred,
Because one breath is all it takes, to be locked in a substance.

Decisions can destroy,
Families and lives,
Substances have left only ashes behind.
It doesn't take a long time to make bad habits,
It takes time to break them.
They promise peace in the darkness,
But they end in bloodshed,
Never in happiness.
The first time, 
will end in craving and obssession.
The substance wafts around
waiting for its next prisoners.
Its a red target on your back,
waiting to strike.
Because one wrong decision,
will get you locked in a substance,
Squirming to get away.

Chapter#1

before the web series, I am really sorry I haven't been posting here I was working on as promised the web series and as promised it is out. I will try and post one every other day(TRY) So pleaseeeee share it and subscribe to be notified about each one of them! UNDER THE CITY CHAPTER#1 I walked silently through the alleyway trying to be as quiet as possible. I was wearing my usual baggy black-grey incognito t-shirt, tracks and a jacket that was 5 sizes larger than me, with the hood on, which covered half my face. I had parked my cycle somewhere towards the ending of the alleyway where the graffiti abruptly ended. Water dripped down from the roofs of tall apartments and the stench of really stale food filled the dim alleyway. It was a place for unwanted and strange things much like me . I tried to spend most of the night there but the smell was becoming unbearable and besides, I had places to be. The music poured into my ears from my mp3 something which people h...

Happiness Anthem

Smile a little harder , Before the world gets darker. Flash it around, trust me, with it you will go a long way It will make somebody's day. Even if it couldn't be a worse time, One smile and it will be fine. Don't smile hesitantly, smile wholeheartedly. Smile like you have never cried, Like you have had the best reason to be happy. A smile can be the bright star in the dark night. When all hope is lost and the world around you is swallowed up by sorrow, Your smile can be the light. Don't look at your bank balance and cry, Count your blessings and do good deeds , Then the world will be a place full of glee. By thelazywriter

My obsession with.....Reading Conspiracy theories

I'm not a crazy person; this stuff exists. What is a CONSPIRACY THEORY!!?? It's as easy or rather even easier than it sounds. When an unfortunate event or situation occurs, with a proper reason or not , they are reasons or guesses or theories as to why such an event occurred or why such a thing exists. So basically made up stories about real things, I already thought you were crazy but now I'm searching for mental asylums.  Before you think I ran away from a mental asylum, let me tell you the people who write this stuff are GENIUSES. It sounds like some things have only one explanation, but actually there are million different reasons. And it's not only on historical events, it is even on problems we face as a generation like....Global warming. I do write some but I don't think anyone would believe in mine cause they are...well I never tried. They are interesting to read and it's even more fun to make your own , my personal favorite is the US dollar bill...
