from you
lifts me up as on a cloud.
I try to get up
from days of depression
low low self-esteem,
I want to yawn the day away...
I couldn't care less about the world,
then
you speak to me
and tell me
I have responsibilities.
I KNOW
but it all seems so useless at times,
I don't want to do anything but complain
endless,
I feel robbed of my happiness
but then
a breath of you
your words
chosen to wound as well as to heal
lifts me up
like a hot air balloon
over the sunrise.
I wish I could preserve that breath of you
and keep that breath
in my heart.
In my heart, your breath would rebirth
me and make
a breath for me.
