May 2010
I bite my nails,
Another bad habit.
Like the nicotine I inhale,
Give myself with hands so lavish.
As I smoke,
I think of games
that as a child I use to play...

Hangman,
I feel so sorry for you.
Made up of mistakes,
just like me, too.
Hang-girl,
that's how I feel.
I'm just for show.
I'm not for real.

What's my secret?
What will I say?
*Figure it out before I hang.
