I WISH !

This poem was one I found a while ago. which I thought would be a good one to open poets corner. :)

Quitting Smoking

I feel a little desperate

A smoke is what I seek

It's been three days

I'm starting to feel weak

I'm trying to kick the habit

But I'm not doing too well

As I frantically search the house

That's becoming my own hell

Just one drag is all I ask

That will help me through

If I don't find a cigarette

I don't know what I'll do

I want to quit smoking

I know that I could

But the way I'm feeling

I don't know if I should

Starting was so easy

But stopping is such a task

I only hope I can hold out

So my resistance will last

I'd love nothing better

Then to be cigarette free

I also know the benefits

All the good it would do for me

Hello to all you ex smoking critters,

Welcome aboard the club for quitters,

Dont get in a flap when you get a craving,

Its no good ranting and raving,

Dont let your body tell you your in need of a fag,

Listen to your brain saying its evil that drag,

Take a deep breath and think you have peace in your mind,

Make yourself a cuppa, sit down and unwind,

Go into this site at least once a day,

Take in the advice from our friend Emjay.

If you get bored, and you get the time,

Send us all a blog to go with this rhyme.

A CHILDS POINT OF VIEW.

Why do people smoke tobacco, is it good for you?,

Cowboys have tobacco that they sit and chew,

They look so very grown up, sending smoke into the air.

It doesnt really smell nice, but they dont seem to care.

I wonder why they shout at me when I say can I try,

No way! can you smoke, it will make you die.

Grown ups are odd, as they say we are only looking after you.

So WHY do they smoke? IS it good for you?

Breath still feels short. Still anxious and worried. 4 months out, wished I felt better.

over-breathe perhaps? Hell I don't know anymore. What I do know is when I smoked I didn't have this...

I started smoking after quitting 5 years ago

that I started smoking again and kidded myself that it would be easy to quit. Now I'm smoking around

Help, I keep slipping

Hi all, I'm new to this site and just had a good rummage around and so far I'm impressed. I stopped

Being smoking since I was 11-12, decided to quit finally today.

would say 2 cigarettes a day at the very most. Last summer I started being disgusted by cigarettes...

I miss smoking, I really enjoyed it!

do with smoking (ex-smokers?) or 2. people who miss it, don't mind smoking or people who smoke...
