Dear cigarettes,
Swirling smoke, enticing you to come just a little closer
You're tearing my family apart
I see it in my Dad, who's trying to quit
But still goes into coughing fits
I see it in my mom, who's confronted me as a child
Because he, " only has one every once and a while."
Even as a child I knew you were lying
