Dust is my only memory. White is the only color I see. Emptiness is my only pulse. Solitude is my only shelter. In between all this chaos of nothingness lies my brain in a box of cigarettes. Smoke becoming my only lover. Caressing me with its ashes, while hypnotizing me with its nicotine. I am looking for my mind and its nowhere to be found in this asylum of heartless consumerism. I am smoking my hopeless life away, with each cigarette. Slowly burning my insides with its fatal dose of love. Whispering: "ashes its all there is left after death, my darling."

Smoky Love.
Dust is my only memory. White is the only color I see. Emptiness is my only pulse. Solitude is my only shelter. In between all this chaos of nothingness lies my brain in a box of cigarettes. Smoke becoming my only lover. Caressing me with its ashes, while hypnotizing me with its nicotine. I am looking for my mind and its nowhere to be found in this asylum of heartless consumerism. I am smoking my hopeless life away, with each cigarette. Slowly burning my insides with its fatal dose of love. Whispering: "ashes its all there is left after death, my darling."
