inhale
I took a breath of you
cause I was addicted
and god you tasted so good
but you were like a stupid cigarette
and at the time I loved you so much...
my escape from everything...
but after a couple puffs, you burned out
and completely disappeared
but that's okay because
you always seemed to come back
....
I took more and more puffs–
little did I know
that cigarettes were slowly killing my lungs
the way you quickly broke my heart
I was dying...
I still only wanted you...
but you were nowhere to be found
and although I enjoyed you all these years
the long term effect has destroyed me
so thanks for being the cause of my stress
and the thing that helped me overcome it
but I quit smoking
and I quit loving you
and I know they say quitters never prosper
but I still feel like a ******* winner
exhale
