My First Cigarette MAG

By Anonymous

   It was on the hotel balcony

With my friend

We talked about our friends inside

Then out came the pack

From his blue jeans pocket

I was incredibly curious

"Have you smoked before"

"No"

He put the long cigarette in my young hand

With the forbidden fruit inside

I really wanted to see what it was like so

I took the matches

The flame touched the end of the cigarette

And into my mouth it went



Curiosity killed the cat

Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted

Cute!!!!!!

I like how you ended it with "Curiosity killed the cat." Very true.
