My boyfriend likes to smoke cigarettes. He smokes them like he’s the front man in a Marlboro add campaign. His eyes squint, seductive, and the smoke floats around him, framing his chiseled jaw and sexy, broken nose. He leans against his truck, or the side of a building, enjoying his moment of freedom. Sometimes he lets it dangle, hanging off his lips, a breath away from falling to the ground.
