You told me not to get addicted to the nicotine that I smoked. You said it was a fake love that filled my thoughts with every drag I took. You said that I didn't need it to be happy. But the truth is, I need to be addicted to something. Because it use to be you, I got addicted and like you said it was fake love that filled my head with the thoughts of finally having a future with someone. But just like that cigarette you burned out and you were gone. I wanted that calmness in reality to be real, but it wasn't. It only lasted a short period of time. I want to be addicted to something to stop being so afraid to do things. When we were together I only wanted to try a little alcohol because I was curious of the world around me, now that you you've completely ruined me I want to drink until the memories fade away and vomit my feelings away the next morning. I want to keep smoking to feel the numbness and happiness I get with every drag so I don't have to think about how happy you are without me. I'm doing okay without you, just by the way, not that you would even take a second to think about me. I want to be addicted to something because you were my cigarette, you made me happy momentarily, you made the world around me look so colorful when I only saw black and white, you made everything go numb, but in a good way. I didn't have to worry about what other people thought, because I had my addiction by my side the entire time. But, it wasn't real, it was very much fake. And the cigarette pack I carry with me is none of your concern, how else am I going to get that feeling of love again?
