A cigarette does not come close to you
and it's certainly not metaphorically correct
in describing the lust
and addiction
to your touch.

Nicotine eats me alive -
you eat me wild, so
I crave and I crave
the heat you use.
Entropy kills me
I'm such a hot mess

ice cubes,
perfume,
maybe a mint
or two
to cover up the aroma
of me falling in love with you.
