No More Smoking

You wake up and know you can do it

Your body twitches but you stay strong

Everything everyone says makes you grind your teeth

You gnash your back teeth till they hurt

Every cup of tea reminds you that something is missing

You are missing a fag

 

You sit down in the bar and you know you can do it

Your fingers itch and feel empty

Your drink tastes funny without a gulp of smoke

Everyone talks shite as you focus on your hands

People smile and congratulate you for avoiding cancer

You are missing a fag

 

I woke up today and smiled

I didn’t have to run to the cupboard to check my supply

I don’t have to spend £70 this week on inflammables

I missed the smell and my breath felt good

My husband can’t stop kissing my clean mouth

I am missing a fag!

And it’s great!
