Cigarette Love

I am your cigarette baby.
You crave me so deeply, so strongly,
Feeling as though you couldn’t live without having me.
Stepping into secrecy.
I am ignited.
Inhaling me, it takes you back to that first time.
An instant addiction.
I envelop you.
Everything else, so easily forgotten.
Exhaling there is a moment of pure release.
Looking down at your hands,
I have burned out,
Given all that I had to you.
I am thrown to the cold, hard ground.
Crushed as you step on me,
And then you walk away.
Not giving em another thought…
…until you crave me again.
Repeat.
