10 minute smoke break at work

by latinwaters

I am flame that is burning out. I am a match that you struck that you refuse to put out. I am kindling wood dancing like the ghosts of my past in a paper house. I am burning burning burning Inhaling the smoke but no way to breathe. Toxic Toxic Toxic I am to my mind, that there is no quell for. I left you behind but you always seem to make yourself known within the packs of my empty cigarette cartons.
