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
I fell too far and broke my heart.
