I know you didn't want to get addicted to smoking,
but it gave you the feeling
that compared to nothing.

Everyone thought you were struggling to breathe
but I know you were struggling to live.

Some thought crying and complaining would give you the attention you craved for,
but at the end it puts you in the situations you never asked for.
So you were running away to avoid feeling hurt,
but you are miles away from what you loved.

From crying to complaining, when you gave up,
you grew up.

Your boisterous laughters and ear to ear smiles got so real,
that no one wondered if it was ACTUALLY real.

I wonder if anyone told you,
but I will be here to remind you,
that I'm proud of you.

It's just, the time is bad,
but life is good.

Someday you wave goodbye to sad days as you stand far away,
for bad time has to go away.
