Loving you is like smoking cigarettes I’m addicted to death’s caress Smoothing down my lungs Cold nicotine like morphine Cold lips consume me You’re killing me and I’m ******* Addicted You You left cigarette burns on me when you left You lit me on fire Then cast me away Without a thought How many times will I kiss you again? Your mouth tastes like sweet Sweet Tar Am I good for you? I just want to be good for you. You sink beneath my skin You stain You rot And yet you pull me back each time Are you the Devil come hot from hell? Or a rain soaked cigarette Clasped between my shaky, clammy fingers I burn myself with the lighter And breathe in anyway
