Flowers, trees, Breathing
outside- a totally different world
Glass, metal, Jail
inside- a prison for lungs
road races by and ashes blow off
Remember your seat belt!
Suffering and pain
lay your head down-
but sit up straight and observe
eyelids drift down
a jolt bounces them back up
unfamiliar names and signs
then Everything blurs
a cough escapes you
struggle for breath, for Health
the road runs on and ashes fly away
"Just One more Cigarette"
