Here I go two days in
And there you are
Crawling under my skin.
Under the surface
But screaming loud
"JUST TAKE A HIT"
I'm less than proud.
Still I resist
And I tell the craving no
But it lingers around,
Why won't it just go?
The mood swings it gives
The agitation is strong
But I keep telling myself
Just keep pushing on.
It has quite the bite
The short-tempered rages
If I told you details about each one
It would fill all these pages.
The page of this rant
Is caused by you too
Moral of this story
Smoking really sucks
And as hard as it is
Quitting you should do!

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
