Camel Crush.
A blue pack or red.
Squeeze, click,
different taste same effect.
Smoky circles that drift and fade,
a yellow smile traced with shaky hands
and shallow breaths.
Too experienced to cough,
just hold it in and enjoy the burn.
Is there a synonym for cigarettes besides death?

I'm sorry I stopped writing.
I think I got scared that once I finished the story
you'd go away.


(Because what reason do you have to stay.)

And I reread your poem,
The one about me.
And Emma blew my mind
(Figuratively)
She said:
"It's the same emotion
Whether you're a teenager or an adult.
It just intensifies
But it's still love."

So I wrote it down
So I wouldn't forget.

I threw your heart out to sea
Just to see if it would drown.
I carried the weight and pole,
Fishing for that blue soul.

This is the house of mystery
And your the guessing game.

Just as you caught the world
Old Atlas strung and stronge.
Ignited a blooming flower
With love and merry song.

But today I'm traveling on,
Traveling on.
