I grabbed the lighter off the counter I walked outside It was late I was home alone that night I sat on the side of the sand box in front of my house My hand was shaking I was exausted I was stressed I just needed something Anything I pull the Cigarette from the altoids tin I hid it in I pull it up to my lips I flick the ligter and a flame shoots up I light the end and take a deep breath it The end glows with red embers Suddenly everything is quiet I exhale blowing out the smoke It's the last gohst of my inncoence that floats away I take another breath in and am filled with a silent minds My mind is finally quiter After years of no stop chatter All is quiet

My First Cigarette
I grabbed the lighter off the counter I walked outside It was late I was home alone that night I sat on the side of the sand box in front of my house My hand was shaking I was exausted I was stressed I just needed something Anything I pull the Cigarette from the altoids tin I hid it in I pull it up to my lips I flick the ligter and a flame shoots up I light the end and take a deep breath it The end glows with red embers Suddenly everything is quiet I exhale blowing out the smoke It's the last gohst of my inncoence that floats away I take another breath in and am filled with a silent minds My mind is finally quiter After years of no stop chatter All is quiet
I don't know how too keep them quiet without them. It was the first time I felt actually calm
