Breathless
Its like the heart rate increases and air begins to thin.
Bright lights appear and you notice the paling of the skin.
Adrenaline beings to pump and your heart skips a beat.
Blood still circulating and your chest pounding like runners on the street.
There's no life in you, yet you still some how manage.
Its like your immune from what comes next, you have an advantage.
You decide to walk on thin ice with no one else around.
You can't swim, the ice breaks, but you still don't drown.
Its like you go into war half dead but come out alive.
Also like your weak willed but still some how thrive.
You also feel complete but yet your still broken.
No words completely mute but so many things are spoken.
Its like your lost but one day you come upon alot.
It might be small but it can get bigger once you give it all you got.
