Alcohols 'N' Cigarettes

Alcohol, So fine, So smooth
So calm yet So strong
It brings people together yet is so straying
It makes you forget all pains, but brings more for life-long

Cigarette, So silent, So much it attracts
So expressive yet So devastating
It makes you relax
It makes you feel energized but weakens you in the long run
