I won't do it

The heart wants what it wants
And what it wants is a cigarette

Take yourself out for a walk, to take your mind off it

Turn the corner and hear the seagul honk

Wach wach wach wach

As it disappears into this blue mist
But I can see lilac in it

You'd been so good not smoking
Even forgot what it was like to miss it
But now you've smoked too much weed
Every night
And you've been going out a lot at night
And drinking and y'know
"I only smoke when I drink" and that you do
But you find yourself in waking hours now craving a toke
And it isn't enough to just ignore it, distract yourself 
Because in half an hour it'll just come
Back again
So what's the point?
Go on. Have a smoke
Should of brung one for the walk
You know it'd of made it better
More cosy, and relaxing
But I guess if you were smoking
You wouldn't of been typing
Which you never do anyway

Tell yourself "I'll do the poems"
Fill up that pretty book of yours
Where are these profound thoughts you were meant to have by now
Those interesting insights
What have you really for to comment on?

And the answer is nothing
A very vacant empty spot between those ears, behind those big ol' eyes
Because all you really think about is nothing
Stuff not worth commenting on
Of very little interest to anyone

I'm not trying to be self depreciating
I just don't have any hobbies.
