I'm just trying to breath

a simple inhale and release

its my lungs, they crave it

that air, and i need to appease

but then there's you

you're something in the way

keep clouding my lungs

but i ask you to stay

you calm me

but **** me with every breath

always keeping you near

our love is nothing short of death

you are laced with nicotine

it wraps its claws around me

never allowing me to leave

not letting me be who i want to be

you are like a cigarette

i feel lifeless without you, almost hollow

but with you i'm filled, granted its with tar

i'm still lifeless with you too
