    NICOTINE

    An addiction, cause by an concoction of unnatural defilement.
    My lungs are screaming from abuse and negligence.
    But my heart is in no better condition.
    Did I mention I have a similar addiction..... to love?
    I'm a smoker, and I want to kick the habit.
    I was kicked by love and I still wear a bandage.
    I smoke so I can manage.
    The effects of a broken heart is causing the most damage.
    Smoking kills, Love dies, I just don't understand it.
    Feining for a drug disguised as love that leads to a disease
    that can be treated by not cured. Love makes everything blurred.
    Nicotine is the word.

    I like the message this has! very well done

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
