Poem
Oxygen I’m breathing oxygen into my bones. How can I help myself, when I cannot love alone? Bubbles flow through every wire; Micro-bubbles flow through every vein. I need to breathe your love into my heart, So I can feel alive once again. Broken thoughts wait to be repaired And understood, Until they appear in your view. Waiting on a memory to come into focus; Do I whisper or shout a prayer? I would make my destiny appear to be in my hands, If I only knew… All I see are random images. Random pictures, random memories, Written down like a crossword clue; I breathe out my thoughts, as I breathe in you. A wish to improve us in this moment in time; I’m breathing in oxygen. I’m breathing out life. I’m just breathing oxygen; I’m breathing oxygen… Still searching for new memories, I hope I am still alive in your eyes. Chasing my future, when I am so weak; I have never seen my optimum. I’m breathing life into my day; I’m floating into the light. Up through the water currents, I am rising with the sea; My heads bursts through the barrier and I can, at last, breathe. If breathing is all that I can do, Then I will breathe for you too, if you need me to. If love is all that I can give, Then I hope my love helps you to once more breathe. Let me breathe into you the oxygen you need, To love this life that we live. (C)2017 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
