Breathe Jessica Breathe.

I look upon her little face, I can not see a sign, My heart beat quickens, starts to race, Don't take this child of mine, I scream the scream the world can here, A panic gets it's grip, There seems to be nobody near, I cannot take this trip, Her in my arms, limp as a rag, I bang on many doors, My inner strength, I have to drag, From deep within my core. The lights are on, there's no one home, Somebody help me please! Her face so blue, it's not the norm, I give a massive squeeze. I here a yelp, a little sound, her chest does start to rise, I hold her close as though we're bound, as i can here her cries, Her color starts to reappear, relief is clear to see, Never have I felt such fear, Or strength inside of me.
