The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Smoke and Cigarette

i die in november
whenever it comes around
under the smoke rising from fire
someone burning, someone long-gone
and then time decides to slow down

i die in november 
whenever it comes around
i sit at the station, smoking a cigarette
as a way to calm myself
and fight my anxiety before i get drown
