The sky above the sea misses the water once the sun rises, and the skyline sits between them, and I miss you like that. And, I miss you like the half-blazing cigarette misses those warm lips and the breath behind them, that would come in sharp, teasing drags because the tobacco is nothing without that breath, and that ember goes out and I think that without you I might go out, too.

Ember
The sky above the sea misses the water once the sun rises, and the skyline sits between them, and I miss you like that. And, I miss you like the half-blazing cigarette misses those warm lips and the breath behind them, that would come in sharp, teasing drags because the tobacco is nothing without that breath, and that ember goes out and I think that without you I might go out, too.
