I started smoking cigarettes again

Something about having another thing burning between my fingers

Besides your hands

Makes me dismiss the feeling that lingers 
when I think of you

Since I can’t have your taste in my mouth

Menthol will have to do

I am addicted 

Isn't this sounding familar?
You **** me inside starting with my lungs

Like the small nicotine sticks do with every inhale

I would much rather your slender fingers in my hand

But for $10 a pack they last around a lot longer than you do 

No matter how much you rot me from the inside out

A piece of me will always be yours

Always
Drunk and smoking a cigarette last night thinking of you.

I DON'T CARE IF IT'S GONNA **** ME
I DON'T CARE I DON'T CARE I DON'T CARE
MAYBE THAT'S WHAT I WANT
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT
SO STOP PRETENDING TO KNOW WHO I AM
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO I AM

love is just an illusion;
                                               a parallax you may say
#Heart-broken
.listening to the world.


hearing everything in return,
unwanted, unwilling to partake
in all the particulars.

time will tell, while
decisions come quietly.

are you tired of waiting,
do you grasp the mettle,
write it down?

young man.

write
write when no one is around
write when you know no one will read it
write for you
and only you
the rawest, purest writing
is found in old journals
notebooks
scrawlings on napkins and shards of paper
write when you you've had your first kiss
or what felt like your first kiss even if it was the hundredth
write when you're falling apart
let your pen fly across the paper
and let your emotions bleed out
because when you are done
and tired and numb
you'll have a piece of art
write just to ******* write

I think

It's scary when
                      You're surrounded by many
     But can only trust yourself


It's scary when
                       You believe in yourself
               But no one else does
