i met him in the dark
his silhouette against the city
under the smog-filled sky
i fell in love too quickly
with his silhouette against the city
he shone brighter than the lights
i fell in love too quickly
with a shadow of the night
he shone brighter than the lights
blinded me amidst the show
our shadows of the night
intertwined and set aglow
blinded amidst the show
graced by a stranger’s soft words
intertwined and set aglow
i met him in the dark
- imagine what he looked like in the light

the taste of nicotine, infecting the young
the deep breath in, corroding my lungs
the squelch of a flame beneath my boot
the extinguished warmth between me and you.
inhale quick, forget as i try
leaving room for sickness to grow
blaming the numbness on the high
i still feel nothing when i'm low.
