The 1st Puff Is the Killer

If you don’t take the first puff
You’ll have nothing ever to miss
No loss or longing, no harm done at all

But if you take that first puff
I know that you will start to crave
A longing for more when it’s not always there

I wish you had never entered the scene, my world, my life
So then I would not have withdrawal effects from you
And I would not be in the know of your existence

Leave me now, to stop increasing pain
Leave me now and never return
Let me lead my life again
