  • i was never good at being there
    never good at holding up
    or staying still

    and now with regret in my hands
    i let go
    jump off the cliff
    without looking
    as usual

    no thought to damages done
    no thought to consequence
    or mistakes made

    and for all of it
    i look down
    see the ground
    getting closer

    and wonder
    if there is still time
    for one last

    cigarette.

  • Nope.  No time for cigarrettes.  Life is too short to waste on them!  Good morning!

  • Great poem….

  • Ditto…..Smoke, Smoke, Smoke  Are you trying to quit?  They are now putting out information that E-Cig are bad for you…..so what isn’t bad for you?  My doc agreed that the brest thing to do was quit everything but his studies indicated strongly the e-cigs better than regular cigs.  I know I could quit,   Anytime I am in the hospital or rehab they don’t even give me patches…I could have them all I have to do is ask.  But I don’t smoke for the nicotine, you can’t make me brelieve I do, too much history proves otherwise.  You have to want to quit and I don’t want to, I like it, makes me very unhappy when I don’t have it.  Same with coffee or air conditioning.  But if you feel the addiction to nicotine try e-cigs.  I personally like N-Joy brand.  Good luck and Grrrrreeeaaaatttt Poem! 

  • @Ampbreia -that’s true but they taste good.  

  • @mommachatter - wow. that was literal for you. i love smoking as well but again just like you i only do it on occasion. for health reasons of course. and yep, i’ve always been able to quit or skip weeks and months on end and go back when the mood strikes me. thank goodness for that.

  • youre so talented i wish i was half this good.
