AIR

AIR

Drink the wild air, let the breezes in 
And inhale deeply to refresh the soul
To deny the lungs is considered a sin

Body and mind, can again be whole
From a state of stasis, one can awake 
Returning to sanity and pay the toll

Knowing it’s real and no longer fake
Blood can now run free in the veins
Relish that breath one can now take

It needs both heart as well as the brain
Recalling all the memories it can retain
