Love and a cigarette

Love kills slowly
Like a cigarette
You hold on to the damn thing on one end
Feel reassured by the fire on the other
You draw breath from it
It draws life from you
And just when you think you can't be without it
It fizzles out unceremoniously, like this post

i hate cigarettes yes. love on the other hand is something I'm just slightly cynical about.
And you needed proof that I hated cigarettes? Like all the choking faces I made when you lit one up arent enough.
