Love is my nicotine

Love is my nicotine

In a world of material girls, I don’t need a thing.

There is no possession I could not live without,

As long as I could still write and hear people sing.

Music is everywhere, so I know that people care,

But as for my things?  Money is not needed there.

Cigarettes, no alcohol.  My addiction is to you. 

Well, well, I am not well.

I need love and the stories that I tell.

I could happily walk in broken shoes if you were at my journey’s end.

If you were there until the end, I would walk until the end.

In a world so shallow and where Sponge Bob is so self-absorbed,

I only need one love, to be adored,

To drive me forward,

To inspire my need to write new words, or clarity thoughts.

Love is my nicotine; love is my sunscreen.

You protect me from me and my apathy.

If you love me always, then I will be happy in all ways.

If you hold me next to you this day,

I will drift away

And when I awake beside your smile,

I will begin again.

One step towards this endless mile.

This adventure together,

United by love forever and ever and ever.
