The Legal drug: Introduction
I lay in my bed, cigarette in hand. It's an old habit, but it's always worked for me. Sometimes it seems my cigarettes are the only things that will never fail me. They are always there when I need them, they can't tell me if they think I'm pretty or not, they have no opinions or emotions. I thought I could quit, I tried, but i'm not strong enough, I am too weak. I sit alone in my bed thinking about him all the time. Damn him. I replay his words in my head, the hurtful words we exchanged not too long ago. I wish we could take a time out from life, just the two of us, we could have been so happy, but now we haven't got a chance. Now look at me, alone, in my bed with a pack of cigarettes, wanting so much to take a big gulp of whiskey, anything strong. To drown my sorrows with alcohol. I can't though, I've been sober too long to throw it away on some guy. All I can do is sit here and think, smoke my cigarettes. Wait for my next shift to start, maybe it'll be better than the last one. Although anything is better then the hell I've put myself through. My life has been taken over by a legal drug.
