Smoking A Cigarette

Smoking your brand of cigarette
(non-menthol)
one that you gave me because i was out
is sort of like
putting on your shirt when you're gone
it makes me feel close to you
I wish that you could be here with me now
but that's just not in the cards
so I sit here in the early evening summer heat
smoking your brand of cigarette
(non-menthol)
trying to feel close to you
but I wish I had your shirt on too
