to fill the emptiness
in our chest
only to take
what we need
to be alive.
Inhale,
exhale.
Why do I still feel
empty
in a vessel gifted
with the ability to simply exist?

We smoke
to fill the emptiness
in our chest
only to take
what we need
to be alive.
Inhale,
exhale.
Why do I still feel
empty
in a vessel gifted
with the ability to simply exist?
