Breathe

I cannot breathe...
What was that sound?

The weight of your body
lying on mine...breathe.

This is a precious moment
to behold for eternity.

I see your eyes so close
as to blend with mine.

I try to lift myself 
longing for that kiss.

Movement has left me..
lay back and perceive what is happening.

He has taken my breath away..
My body is in shock.

We walk the path through
time...just breathe..

What was that sound?
Something to be examined.

His breath is giving me life.
His eyes are giving me strength.

We have entered the realm.
I will not show the pain...breathe...
