what we had is like a single lit cigarette:
it gave a temporary high,
it helped me breath even if it was just for awhile;
a takeaway from stress.
it was relaxing.
but like a cigarette,
it was short lived,
temporary.
memories like ashes, falling unto the pavement as if nothing happened;
a fleeting moment of vulnerability, of apatheticness.
sadly, i’m a chainsmoker.
i know how unhealthy it is for me,
how it’ll **** me in the long run,
to keep asking for more.
but,
i yearn nothing more but to have a cigarette between my fingers.
especially yours.
