Blades of smoke pass through my hair, Cutting; oxidising; as the smoke is slowly rising through the tower of my power as I vainly gasp for air. Cyanide, it seems, can comfort me a while, as I'm breathing; screaming and repeating smoky words into the floor's mute bathroom tile. But my power is all gone; all wrong. Oxidise: Cyanide. Once more into my lungs.

Smoke and Cyanide
Blades of smoke pass through my hair, Cutting; oxidising; as the smoke is slowly rising through the tower of my power as I vainly gasp for air. Cyanide, it seems, can comfort me a while, as I'm breathing; screaming and repeating smoky words into the floor's mute bathroom tile. But my power is all gone; all wrong. Oxidise: Cyanide. Once more into my lungs.
I've been quitting about a month now, and **** is it hard. It shouldn't still be this hard, right? Jesus.
