no regrets, not yet anyway

a cigarette box empty thusly
thrown out of the window
from this eightymileperhour car
recalls sapphire eyes
begging me to stay one more night

    This is great and so true. Switched to an e-cig about a year ago. Highly recommend it. JD

    Its something that can come back and haunt you, the ciggarette box thrown out, the eyes that are still in your memory and then as they fade it creeps up on you...time changes all things...
