Smoke
Inhale
Exhale
Remember
Forget
I can't seem to remember a time I was happy
The girl in the mirror evaporates like smoke
Just like the smoke floating into my lungs
Inhale
Exhale
Just another hit, make me the girl I so long to be
If only for a moment
In, Out, In, Out
I stare at the puff of smoke floating from my lips
It's freeing, as if you're a bird flying far away from the misery of this world
In, Out, In, Out
I never wanted to be this way, I never wanted to rely on a fix, pain changes a person
Sometimes, for the worse.

a very heartfelt poem, & an intriguing image, like the spirit being carried away on the misty strands of smoke...
