bent cigarette
Ian Aug 2018
addiction as if it’s gold

yearning for the time of marigolds

quick, fleeting; never satiated

even a bent cigarette

will have to do

tail end
Ian Aug 2018
last embers fleeting

a final stand

the nicotine is stronger

at the end of its life
this one has to do more w my addiction to cigarettes. i know how they make me feel but i always feel awful after. it’s a bad habit.

fresh start
Ian Aug 2018
a light changes, new dawn

a leaf turned, new colours

a fresh start, different you

better mental, finally renewed
i started this one when i had just moved in to college. i knew my mental health would profit from this greatly. it really is like inventing a new you, a new person with your own ideas and your own morals that aren’t your parents. i love college.

lack of sleep
Ian Aug 2018
tired, my body shakes

so much like the rest

of me; anxiety peaks

maybe one more minute

until i fall heavy
this one moreover has to deal with how little sleep i get during the night. a lot of my own personal anxiety plays into this.

— The End —
