the last smoke

           
           
I haven't felt excited in a while          
maybe i'm burning low          
the last cigarette at midnight            
smoked like there won't be another            
           
haven't heard your voice          
in such a damn long time          
poetic fuck that makes my legs shake          
after you're done with me          
           
where have all the hard hitters gone?          
           
bored with the game          
you've long since picked up your bats          
walked off the field          
the sun set on your shoulders          
no looking back        
           
I miss the old days          
when we were young          
getting drunk            
laying down some real heavy ink          
           
even better the harsh critiques          
the kind that piss you off          
made me want to be a better writer          
           
missing the artist I was          
finding myself blown away          
just ashes from the last smoke          
blown across the page          
           
           
         
         
*note so grateful to you that are still here just missing a few voices
