[bodytext] => ‘lately the sky seems lackluster at best,’ i say, lighting a cigarette. ‘the sky is whatever color you paint it.’ and you swore the cigarettes would kill me, and i swore you were probably right. but on that night in 1999, one of two things was probably going to happen. either i was going to break up with you...or you were going to break up with me... or 3.) both of us would make the same move at the same time, canceling each other out... resulting in an ongoing relationship no one wanted. so, how did it all end up? well, i remember those few cigarettes on the hood of my car. and talking over a built to spill record... (whether or not they ‘sold out’) and we saw a shooting star... and i know it’s cliché, but i made a wish. i don’t remember what exactly i wished for... anything but world peace. and you turned to me and whispered in my ear, ‘it’s over’ and i nodded as i took the final drag on the cigarette. ‘i know...i’ve known...’ and she got down off the hood of my car with a frustrated sigh. it was that easy. and as she began to walk away, i called after her. ‘have a cigarette, you’ll live longer.’ and she crawled back on the hood of my car and we smoked like two amusement parks on fire.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
