Let me be your cigarette.

Smoke me just like one.

Inhale my kiss, and let me surround you.

Let me venture through your veins.

I am smoky oxygen, when you quiver, sighing, happily at 3 am.

 

Only difference is,

I won't burn out.

But I cannot guaruntee your health with me.

Because if I were a cigarette,

An addiction you couldn't quit,

I'd be just as addicted to your lips.

I couldn't tell you what inspired this poem. I just started writeing and it came spilling out. It's how all my writeing comes out. It's a blessing and a curse.
