not 18 throat burns from a cigarette smoke expands in lungs a head rush, 6 shots avalanche voices and empty bottles hands shake, a stumble, a scale a fall, a brick wall bruised knuckles, stinging legs dilated pupils, look, don't touch numb *** emotionless they fall in love, she blinks mimic the movies, mirror the books they think you love, they think you think drugs, cigarettes, meaningless *** pills, starving, self-scarring smoke expands in lungs throat burns from a cigarette not 18 yet

the cautionary tale that happens to be my life
not 18 throat burns from a cigarette smoke expands in lungs a head rush, 6 shots avalanche voices and empty bottles hands shake, a stumble, a scale a fall, a brick wall bruised knuckles, stinging legs dilated pupils, look, don't touch numb *** emotionless they fall in love, she blinks mimic the movies, mirror the books they think you love, they think you think drugs, cigarettes, meaningless *** pills, starving, self-scarring smoke expands in lungs throat burns from a cigarette not 18 yet
that moment when you realize that your entire existence is exactly what they warn you about becoming when you get older.
