If I could breathe freely I would, but there are these certain factors that make it hard to enjoy the fresh night air. There's the smoke, the pollution, the dampness after the rain - and you. I have no interest in company, occupied by my own thoughts as I enjoy the beautiful view of today's sunset. Yet here you are, hard to ignore, despite being silent besides me. And looking at you only makes me think more, call you beautiful in my mind and light up another cigarette.
