All untoward perturbation,
cloud my thoughts,
Annoying every moment,
and asking me to stop.
Let this be my last drag,
The final long puff,
Let me enjoy this last one,
And I promise this will be my last heard gruff.
I light the cigarette,
And inhale the fumes,
Oh! It feels heavenly,
I have to resume.
Then I look at the pack,
It is still half full,
Tempting me to continue,
And forcing me to slack.
I detest the vapor,
Yet I squirm for its taste,
How can I quit?
I am your slave.
I convince myself,
This to be the last fight,
After this pack,
I will give it for life.
Few days reluctantly somehow passes by,
My fear not to recede troubles me like a sly,

😊🌸thank you for your concern. I wrote this for a friend of mine who kept lapsing on the promises she made. I hope this will give some inspiration for others to quit. Personally I detest smoking.

Haha. No worries. I appreciate your kindness and pardon me for misunderstanding 😊. Actually I read somewhere about how a people hate when they are addressed as dear when the other person is not known, like an air hostesses or a bartender calling dear to their guest 😊

I hope and pray whoever is fighting such addiction always Wins❤
My Dad was a chainsmoker too.But the irony is I never hated him for that.(I cough a lot due to secondary smoking,it gives that suffocative feeling ).Now when I smell a smoke somewhere I feel good coz it gives me the feeling of his presence 🤦♀️.His addiction becomes my saviour
