Woh!... An intoxicating write :) Lol. Never knew there was SO many chemicals in cigarettes! Unreal.
Well penned Sylvia :]

And I still crave a smoke from time to time. Even though i never really got deep into it and it didn't last long.
excellent poem

Very well versed puts a new perspective on nasty cigarettes

Its a shame what addiction does to us, the death hold is incredible .......... I wish you strength,power and determination to quit

Excellent poem, Sylvia. I thankfully don't smoke, but I lived in a household where everyone smoked profusely. Their smoke would make my eyes water, and people around me would say that I smelled like cigarettes. Your poem is an eye-opener to a very unhealthy habit, so hard to break.

Sometimes even the fact we knew something is not good for us, we find it hard to abondoned it. I have had temptations many times to start smoking, but i find other ways to ease it. I think it is very hard to quit, but little by little, if you cut down on your daily use then it's the first step. Unhealthy habit is something we can't help, and if we are force to do, then we might returned to our same old self. After all life without temptation is only an imitation of living. Seeing someone smoking is soo contagious.

And still I smoke, I've tried everything, this is the hardest addiction to quit. Still the damage is done and I keep lighting up !!!

Great poem 5/5!
