earbud wires hung from my ears, resting upon the fabric covering my chest. my eyelids hung, wanting to shut for more than a few seconds. my frail fingers brought the nicotine to my face, my lips covering the tip of the source.

i took a deep breath in, a balloon resembling my lungs. the only thing different was that smoke filtered in instead of oxygen.

         i'm an unhealthy balloon, i guess.

i lifted my chin up, looking directly up at the dark gray sky, the smoke escaping through my nostrils almost matching the sky it went up to.

within my pocket held my phone, the beloved object that held majority of my life. not in the ways of people per say, but photos and music. not a single photo had been taken since the day he was shot, that had been the hardest part to swallow.

knowing that not too long after taking that photo was he shot and murdered. that made me feel uncomfortable and sorrowful.

just thinking of that dampened my mood more than it had already been, but the device soon vibrated. i took a puff of my cigarette before reaching into my pocket for it.

the screen lit up, covering a small portion of my lock screen. the notification was a text message from someone i didn't know, but as my eyes scanned the words sent to me a small grin appeared.

she was nice, really happy seeming. it was a nice change of emotion and scenery, seeing someone be happy and not have a worry or care in the world was nice, but a small amount of jealousy resided in me.

         i wish i felt like her. happy, hopeful even

i looked at the tree across the street, thoughts coming and going as my gaze became fixated on the leaves that were turning a shade of orange.
