Unbroken Debt of Breaths

unbroken debt of breaths what should your death mean to me not an other breath kept in secrecy step a little deeper into me never had a chance to breathe what should your death mean to me whisper with your life anda let me see my mouth is wide open i can taste you bleed take another breath next one is on me what should your death mean to me in your acts of desperation you set me free being born under water taught me to breathe what should your death mean to me a cracker jack prize in sanity the blue ring ing of your lips still breathing is a mystery what should your love mean to me ? ... .. . 8~15~17 conest U form used word "unbroken" ... .. .

This piece has made me ponder, what would my death mean. As I am almost invisible to my family I am sure it would be a passing bump on their psychic journey. You see truthfullly I don't know. OMG it is the loneliest of feelings!
