Smoked.

Smoking.
Ah! It was a taboo she would say.
Until,
She met him.
How she would cough like she was wailing.
And now,
How it has been a part of her. An inseparable part.
He suggested she should quit. She denied.
The same denial, he had once thrown.
And now how she smoked.
Smoked in and out
With that air sack of hers,
Flickering lights from her cigarette,
Countless cigarette butts,
Lying all over, her now fading blue ashtray.
Blue his favorite color. And hers. Blue their woes. Their lives now.
Smoke, their common addiction. A uniting force.
Their, common victor and they?
The vanquished duo.
