Cigarettes


I dont know why everyones mad at me

I havent done a thing

Except maybe killed 480,000 people per year

 

But if you really think about it, its out of my control

Im only a little thing that has no choice in this at all

 

If you need to blame someone, blame the guy that bought me

Maybe they shouldve thought twice before they got me

 

But it all works out in the end, at least for me anyways 

Because theres always going to be more of me, cant say the same for them

Snow in Autumn
<p>This is so good, it reminds me of a poem called &quot;A Letter from Cancer&quot; if you&#39;re interested in looking it up on Youtube. The person who read it was fantastic and gave me a lot of inspiration to write more poetry.</p>
