As I light this third one,
your face came up to my mind.
I suddenly wished that your love is like smoking.
When I desired to let in the smoke,
the addictive nicotine of your love
inside my pitiful tired airbags,
I could easily tell myself
to exhale the white
lung filtered ghost
out of my system,
out of my life.
But your love doesn't work that way.
Love is inking your name on my skin
deep through my bones (if it can).
Living in me, thousands of needle bites
In each second piercing through who i am
for the rest of my breathing years.
And through the pain, your name is complete.
Yet when you leave,
your name, your love,
will remain
in blank ink
on my young
cigarette-fumed
skin.
(all but a work of my mind)
Posting it here because judging by it, it is still not worthy of being published :(
And I still **** at ******* titles.
