"i am worse than the cigarettes"
his whisper is a ghost against my ear.
"you know how toxic i am, but
you don't care, but it's only because
you love the feeling of me on your
lips."
i couldn't find the air in my lungs to
reply, he was right. our love seemed to
be destroying me faster than i was on
my own.
