Cigarette Break

Still in pain
when the rain came
walking on rocks
my own personal
school
of hard knocks.
baby steps of
progression
fall
into digression
one for three
give and take.

My passion
is not fashion.
love
and a peace dove
you
and me
splendid fantasy.

Cry without tears
hiding behind
pearly whites
right stuff
no stuff
take a another puff
from a stale
damp cigarette
and ask yourself
is this what you call love?
