Bad Habit By: Sheri C. Uy 01/07/2008
In the morning when you wake up First thing you do is reach out and hold me Your gentle fingers caress my body Your sleepy eyes lovingly look at me Then you slowly take me to your lips And smell me with the warmest of breaths You ignite me in a single flick In those familiar lips I surrender myself Between your fingers my life I freely give
The time has come for the smoldering light To be put out, away from sight As daybreak finally chased the night I lay here, alone, ravished and quiet
In silence, I ponder:
Why does everyone want to touch me? Why do they love to drag the life out of me? Why do they burn my white body? Then crush and throw me away?
After all, I’m just a cigarette!
Author's Note: (Sincerely, no offense meant for the smokers!)
You had me going for a moment all sensual you!!! that's cheating, a cigarette indeed!!! make me want to have one and cough out the frustration of a lover going away...
You really are a tricky one
Bravo!!!

Well Sheri, I too remember the importance of that cigaette but I had the strength to quit in 2003 and never looked back because it was too hard to quit once don't want to do it a second time. Thanks for sharing .

Well as an ex smoker I loved this one and yes I can see the silly side of this but also a sad truth, my smokes were the last thing I had at night, what I reached for when I couldn't sleep, and the first thing I had when I awoke in the morning. Never noticed till this poem the analogy of cigarettes and lovers. lol

Even though you made smoking a cigarette sound so sensual, I'll pass. No wonder smokers breath so heavily. (lol) Peace, Love and Blessings Always, Paul.
Loved this...I quit in 1993 but I still recall that first cigarette, oh and the one that you had to have with the first cup of coffee, and the one that you needed right after lunch, the one when you got in the car and the one when you talk on the phone...a hard habit to quit, I must say the hardest thing I've ever done! You've nailed this one with excellence...enjoyed!
Blessings,
Joyce B.

As a smoker, no offense taken. It's a habit, in answer to your title. A bad one, one I wish I'd never started. Too hard to quit...
