Carbon Monoxide (Co) Week 1: O.D.A.A.T.

Chain smoke until I'm in care of the CO. There's one left, still. I smoke it really slow. "It's the end," I anticipate As the last inch evaporates. I can't get Over it; It's over before I know it. Butt, I can't quit. I'm possessed with this Obsession; I'm addicted. My lungs have oxygen, Yet I'm suffocating inside. I can't breathe again Without my 'noxide.

I did quit (a hundred and twenty five pounds ago.). I guess you could say quitting has made me a well "rounded" person. Vince

I've heard that it is very difficult to quit smoking. Never give up, though. It could add years to your life. Very nicely portrayed. Keep writing.

I could not have quit without Gods divine intervention. He through his grace saw fit to release my desire, renew my willpower, and forget that I even had the nasty habit. This after three packs a day for the last 20 or so years. I am truly blessed. -AA its been 5 years now since I quit.
