I watched you as you walked down that cool, grey sidewalk flaming lips clung to your cool, dark skin chewing your pencil between your slightly hereditary yellow teeth And that one chipped tooth that i gave you when we were seven I watched myself put my cigarette down because suddenly I wanted to have lungs I wanted to have lungs so i could breathe your sweet and pure air At that moment you became the succulent poison apple the 1000 calorie ice cream cone the guilty pleasure my saccharine escape from this cancerous world
