Swollen Livers and Holey Lungs

I went a little astray in my life at some point and that's when I wrote this.

Unnecessary exaggerations

Unforgivable explanations 

And the absence of 

your fingertips

the worst toxin of them all

Utterly vile

I take shot after shot

don't stop

I haven't forgotten yet

Bittersweet smoke

I take hit after hit

don't quit

I haven't reached the clouds yet

Jilted lovers

I take touch after touch

don't leave

I haven't learned my lesson yet
