My Addictive Affair

I promised not to get near you ever again
I promised not to think of you again even
I promised to fulfill my promises to myself
Yet, once again, failure I accept

Standing before you now, weak and resigned
All of my pride painfully I unbind
Just so I will be able to touch you again
Just to take you in me once again

One touch is all it takes and you know I am yours
You will be welcomed and cradled in my hands of course
As our lips reunite I know I have reached a point of no return
I want you here and now, and I am not concerned

As always you are warm in my hands
And that familiar feel on my lips, I cannot resist
You know you will get burned if we go on
Yet you are so brave to insist to go on

When I first met you, you knew about my intentions
You told me yours and I took you with no inhibitions
We are doing this as two consenting adults that is the truth
The two of us together is a combination that is no good

You know that one flicker is all we need
I will take you in me and I know you will like it
Then I blow you for all your worth
A cycle we continue until we are spent both

When it is time you reach your end
I have to let go of you before I too get burned
I promise to be gentle in tossing you away
You have to go now, no more reason for you to stay

After all that is said and done
Nothing can be undone
I will say this loudly and repetitively just like a chant

“For the love of my lips and my lungs,
I am quitting smoking this instant!”

@dabo: :) hehehe Didn't mean to trick you, buddy. ;)

@joelmcvie: Thanks so much! Coming from you, I appreciate it big time! :)

As a treat to myself, maybe I'll meet up with Sobraine Classic Lights later. lol

wow...iba ang naisip ko nung una...hehe! cool post... pero hinay hinay lang sa smoking, mate..hehe (like you will take my advise..hehe)

Joaqui said...

@roneiluke,rn: Noted. :) Thanks. I am actually trying to lessen then eventually stop. Like I said, for the love of my lips I will do it. I don't want to have really dark lips/gums. hehehe I was able to quit before for that same exact reason but sometimes I just can't help myself and look for it. It's my escape when I'm being consumed by stress. Thankfully now, I have this blog to somehow be that escape for me. :) Thanks agai. :)

Admin said...

Nice :)

Buti na lang ako walang ikiquit... Siguro too much drinking na lang...

Nursing student ako at aware ako sa mga effects ng smoking. Hehe!

Joaqui said...

@kris jasper van dyke: Thanks. :) No intentions to trick you at all... hehehe

@bulitas: Thanks, bro. :)

@wanderingcommuter: Thanks. :) It's hard to quite when it became part of your routine already. I am struggling to quit. I was able to do it before so, I am hoping to do it again. lol

@boying: Thanks for dropping by. :)

@richard the adventurer: Good for you. I don't like drinking too much. I kinda go beyond myself when I am drunk and it's not nice. hehehe I have nurses and doctors as friends and they say I should quit if I want to live longer. Good thing, I don't so the advice was kinda trivial. hehehe Even gave me reasons to smoke more. lol

lucas said...

yeah.. i was able to get it out of my system at last...i feel lot better now...thanks for the sympathy, mate :)

hehe. mahirap tlga itigil ang smoking...hinay hinay lang till your body adjusts...just don't let it get to the point na maging dependent ka on it. im no smoker but i have ALOT of friends who are...

you're right...blogging is very therapeutic for me too...letting it all out..hehe! thanks again...

Joaqui said...

@roneiluke,rn: No problem. :)

Actually when I am at home or at work, I don't really crave for it. But then when I am out, like gimmick or coffee or something, it just doesn't feel right without that stick on my hand. And I enjoy going out.

I feel so bare without it.

@wandering commuter: True. I have this friend that everytime we go out, we will defintely be smoking. lol Quite funny because both of us want to quit but when we are together, we just had to smoke. Separately though, we don't. hehehe

How very interesting. If you can figure out WHY and WHAT makes you feel bare, and address that need sans nicotine, then you'll find it easier to not smoke when going out.
