One more cigarette

SorrowfullyHappy

I say I'll quit

After one more

And so I smoke

My last cigarette

I say I'm quitting

But I'm really not

I tried so hard

The smoke is killing me

But the stress

Is killing me faster

I don't think I'll live

To be Twenty one

Someone save me

Before I die

    Good write. it's easy to say 'if we put our hand in the fire, it will get burnt'. Smoking is not exactly the same as that. No use me being a wag, and saying: 'I gave up smoking; I never started'!
    maybe if you can literally turn you hand to something else, when you (your hand!0 reaches for another ciggy?

    Have a really good try. You're only 15. There's all the rest of your life to live yet! 🙂

    Giving up smoking is not easy, I was a heavy smoker but even I manged to give up and that was 35 years ago. Giving up makes so much sense, you are only 15 and have your life in front of you, mine is behind me and I am so glad that I gave up smoking in my thirties.
