You light a cigarette, a flame surfaces against the tip, your red lighter, its all chipped. Half empty your killing me. Your eyes are sure, your only tired.\u00c2\u00a0 I always understood, that a fire needs to be fueled. You just lose it. You feel lost without it.<\/p>\n
The cigarette now, it use to rest on your lips.
\nIts just ash now, and spent.<\/p>\n
I spent some time.
\nStop it.<\/p>\n
I fall to ground, searching to find the spent ashes. You watch with the taste of tobacco still lingering on your tongue, I feel you inside of me. I know how a fire burns.
\nThe ashes travel from the ground now, they rest in my hands.<\/p>\n
Kiss of a cigarette
\nIm missing
\nIts missing
\nthe scent of being in use
\nyou stare at me<\/p>\n
I’m sure you already know.<\/p>\n
I stand silent, holding a cigarette from your pack. I sandwich it between my lips. I take your lighter, you tighten your grip. The lighter is not in my grip. You lose it. You feel lost without it.<\/p>\n
An ash kisses the edge of your cigarette,
\nI touch the tip of your cigarette.
\nAsh fall to ground,
\nWith my touch,
\nThe cigarette is lost to ground.<\/p>\n
You grab another from the pack. Number six. Just speak the words\u00c2\u00a0 you use the cigarette to bury. You spent last night with a lighter, and a solid heart just confused. I spent last night loving you.<\/p>\n
I do not want to confuse you, cigarette fall down.
\nI only want you, not the cigarette.<\/p>\n
We’re breaking apart.<\/p>\n
You smoke the world’s worry, another flame surfaces between the tip. Your red lighter, its all with time you’ll eventually quit. If not, I’l start.\u00c2\u00a0 A touch lives. Your strong hands entangle my fingers. I touch the edge of your cigarette. Stop that you said.<\/p>\n
I want control but the cigarette is white lined yellow with straight lines. Im color blind in love.<\/p>\n
I’l always be standing back, I hold your pack of cigarettes. You, with another cigarette now.<\/p>\n
Your burning a fire, too hard to control. When your out of them,
\nIf you want to light a fire, and the sensation of red is between your lips,
\nWhy don’t you stop and hold something else
\nLight my fire instead.
\nMy heart<\/p>\n
Spread the ashes
\nAll over my chest
\nI promise to start a fire
\nI’ll make it dark red.<\/p>\n
I’ll be your cigarette.<\/p>\n
Your a beautiful memory,<\/p>\n
so I cried last night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
