Cigarettes

Riley Stephenson 2006 (Indiana)



I’ve always found they burning off a cigarette so interesting the way it slowly burns out like my passions for my life by the longer I live it’s feels like there is no meaning no passion but to live for but to help other people out like a cigarette helps nicotine addicts or to help people feel a quick happy like I like to do or to get a quick buzz but it can also destroy peoples life by addiction like I feel like I destroy peoples life with my clingy ness and my anger and I feel like my life is very close to the end of the cigarette burn.

About this poem

It’s how I feel as a 14 year old and my depression that’s I hide
