Run for Cigarettes

~ johntaiyu ~

We made a run
for cigarettes
right before bed
together
the other night

and all I could think
was how
for so long
I believed
the days
where there was someone
beautiful and loving
and light and open
like her
for me
were so far gone
I can't even remember

    i don't know if i should look away or read this a second time. this felt to me, like a private thought. a naked statement made between you and your conscience. such a naked piece. short but brutal.
