Of soothing smoke
Sucked in
Through pursed lips
With burning relief
Eyes shut softly
Thoughts abandoned
In zero gravity
Head hung lowly
Welcoming a numbness
Letting it crawl
From lungs to spine
Despair reminisced
In a perpetual moment of oblivion
Tears that welled up
Lost ground to uncertainty
Filled
To the brink of exhaustion
Nostrils flared
With expiring smoke
Opening eyes
To new revelations
I withered away
With that last cigarette.
