Two Cigarettes

Two cigarettes Because one is not enough To forget the void Nor discover the luxury. One cigarette leaves my mouth watering For the bitterness of us. One cigarette doesn't cloud the sky For me to drown in you. Two cigarettes Because three is too many; I'm alone with myself. "I'll fuck this up" and "I'm not worthy." Three cigarettes, and it's easier To burn myself with the ash. Three cigarettes leaves a taste too sweet And I crave more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more
