Cigarette

You lit me on fire
And I savored the painful pleasure
That came with it
You drew me deep into you
Into your bones and veins
Until traces of me stained your blood eternally
And then
When I was just getting used to how your lips felt
Against my skin
When I was just getting used to having
My life, my soul
Pulled away from me and into you
You crushed me like you would
Stub out a cigarette
You were done smoking
And you left me behind
All ashes and smoke
You flicked me away
Like I didn't matter one bit
