Addicted + Love + Stick = Cancer
The gentle reassurance when I held you in my hand
Led me away to a make-believe land
Now my heart can’t resist
But to yearn for your smoking bliss
But being with you is something I just don’t miss
To believe that I once held you close
Hoping that you’d protect me from harm
Man, it’s because of you I am where I am
It’s you that caused me internal and external harm
The time I first held you;
To the time you came in to the world and tore it apart
You really did affect my lungs and heart
No one knows what I’m going through
How much I once loved and wanted you
But now, it’s over – We’re through – For Sure –
Only I know how you made me feel
With all the problems you externally helped me deal
But where are you now
You’ve caused me such grief and harm
I can’t even stand to look at you
I once saw you as my life machine
But today I’m literally connected to a life support machine
Why am I blaming you?
It’s me – I could’ve resisted you
Everyone continuously told me to quit – To cut down – To stop
But I ignored all who were close
I asked for advice in order to quit – But I turned my back blindly
I was tricked by the devil’s whispers
Tempted to continue on and on
I wasn’t even bothered about what you could do to me
The internal life long effect you would’ve had on me
And today;
I have burnt crisp black lungs
Lungs that are congested with black smoke
Can’t breathe without a oxygen machine – Which is permanently attached to me
And all this – Because of who – You
Let me name and shame you ‘O NICOTINE’
Day and night I cough non-stop
Wailing and crying out aloud in agony and utter pain
I’ve been diagnosed with cancer to my Throat, Heart, Liver and Lungs
I ain’t got long to go – When I get questioned by The Almighty Allah (SWT)
What will I do?
What will I say?
We were told not to harm ourselves in such a way
But I ignored
And continued my addictive stupidity
And today – Because of that small deadly white stick
I am in pain
