Just Breathe
deep into such flesh that we call skin
your mind is as pleasant as the wind
grinding into your footsteps
love, you can't await
chills without shivers
you pretend to intake
hope that just arrived
as finger prints take over your life
justify without justice
you begin to discover
that deep into such flesh that we call skin
your mind is as pleasant as the wind
remember when only you can understand
dreams unspoken for
with every man made demand
loving the tragedies
that happy moments create
you find yourself miserable
for more than one second of each and every day
deep into such flesh that we call skin
your mind is as pleasant as the wind
...just breathe
