Cigarettes

Addiction is no joke it's so hard to break free, The drugs and the booze never got a hold of me, I've tried them all and nothing had a hold, Until I tried cigarettes now I can't let go, I know if I don't stop I won't ever grow old, Cause the chemicals will kill me or so I'm told, But I can't seem to stop no matter what I try, I don't even like to smoke and that's no lie, I can't stand the taste or the smell they have, I wish I could go back in time to stop the first drag I had, I was nine years old staying the summer with my cuz, I tried my first joint, cigarette and got my first buzz, But didn't really smoke regularly until I was sixteen, Ever since then I've been a nicotine fiend, Now I'm thirty-one and I'm still caught in its grasp, Every pack of cigarette I smoke I swear is my last. ~DM2~
