I am
Hesitation lingers soundlessly
There is nothing in the air
Expectation hasn't entered the vacuum
The chest rises and falls
So soothing, gentle, effortless
This is peace or resistance to pain
Aware just heavy enough for indentation
Disruption of surface tension
To evidence existence
Captured in the moment
By your own wave
The shaken rope's transverse curve
Who slammed it to the floor doesn't matter
When you are the undulations
Start this heart
Shock me into waking
Let me take the first breath which fills my lungs
Then let me be
I'll take shape from that moment on
