Gasping For Air
I thought it’d take a mountain
A mountain moved and climbed
A thousand games of hide & seek
Before I’d ever find
The answer to the question
All-knowing, holy truth
Will I ever get over what happened
Will I ever stop loving you
It’s quite simple really
Too often overthought
By those who’ve loved
and those who’ve not
And those who wish they never had
There is no end,
Only evaporation
The love mists into false disappearance
But it is still there
Still lingering in every breath
For love is like oxygen
Fuel for the soul
Fuel for the body who will never be whole
Without their missing piece again
