Poetry Breathes You
911 affirmation: "remember to breathe"
Because to hold my breath is to keep myself from holding you
Poetry breathes you, the way I always miss how much I need you
The next door neighbor to my heart
You can borrow as much sugar as you need
Because I have a sweet tooth for your lips
I need your kiss
I could do without the freedoms of air
This is the war for love so all is fair
Under this weather where unpredictable is the norm
When I was born all the stars pointed to you
So I find myself having late night conversations with constellations because my dreams carry over into the day and my smile falls asleep as I pray, then wakes up to a new May, so may I please have this dance?
My heart is hop scotching to the lou
Where did you go, I can't find you
p.s. "Remember to breathe..."
