fatal secrets

------------------------
When I was a hypnotist
I saw many atheletes
Some then excelled at golf
or bowled a perfect game

Then a body builder came
who wanted super strength
with words I psyched him up
and he died within the week

I vowed to stop at my peak
I found out it was steroids and speed
that caused the fatal result.
Within all of us a seed exists

Of the problem that persists
because we will not admit it
to ourselves or others.
It is the seed of self destruction
