The scent of a cigarette makes me feel safe.
When there was only one man who left tracks of mud in the house I was a little more happy.

That man didn't hurt me like the other ones do.
He didn't smell every inch of my body.
He didn't whisper sweet nothings into my ear just so I wouldn't fight when they tried to unbutton my shorts.
He would let me lay on his lap and the smell of cigarettes and deep humming would make me feel so safe that I could dream.
