the reapers grips to tight

Heroin taught me to learn to say goodbye. Heroin taught me how to be relentless to get what I want. Heroin taught me how to persevere through pain and suffering. Heroin taught me to be sympathetic and empathetic because so few people were to me. Heroin taught me that all is not as it often appears. Heroin taught me to read body language and facial expressions in ways that I would have never imagined. Heroin taught me how to negotiate in times of personal and professional conflict. Heroin has taught me more than I ever gave away to it.
