I smoked my last cigarette today and boy did it taste just like all the others. It tasted Like 8 minutes by yourself Like the last thing you do before you go inside every night Like short conversations Like the cold air you force yourself into when winters lingers like the smoke on your fingertips. Like the **** you have to take afterwards Like the ashy kisses we force onto our loved ones Like burned upholstery in our cars Like forcing a deep breath Like headaches Like nausea Like all the ******** reason I used to justify the socially accepted suicide we sell in our gas station! Like stress Like sadsness Like temporary relief And Like permanent destruction It tasted, Like the color black. I smoked my last cigarette today And boy, Did it taste just like the rest.
