smoke

Smoke fills and drowns the air
I choke.
Blinded by the toxins I cannot see your face
But no one seems to care

 Aged adults have been smoking since their teens
they can take it
I am but still a child
my lungs will not make it

 Do not ask me to contribute, to your cancerous suicide
I refuse
Just because I am a child 
Am I supposed to be obliged? 

What I say is real, it comes from the heart.
I wish you could understand how I feel.
And you wonder why we are being torn apart

 Parts of me that are supposed to be filled with love
are now filled with smoke
It is now my lungs
That are soaked

Why are you risking your life as well as mine?
It’s really not hard; just don’t smoke all the time.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
