The cigarette burns, I watch it fade, Like the smoke that loops, like the love we made. Infinity twists in the cold night air, Mocking the "forever" that led me here. She’s gone, but I still wear her ghost, Clinging in nicotine, stitched in my sleeves. The scent of goodbye lingers the most— Smoke stains stay, but she had to leave.

The cigarette burns, I watch it fade, Like the smoke that loops, like the love we made. Infinity twists in the cold night air, Mocking the "forever" that led me here. She’s gone, but I still wear her ghost, Clinging in nicotine, stitched in my sleeves. The scent of goodbye lingers the most— Smoke stains stay, but she had to leave.
