I breathe in… The sights and smells Of this city I’ve come to know… So well I gaze… Across the turquoise ocean Where the waves Liberate my spirit… From its shell I breathe in… The brilliant sky line Where the birds Emerge shyly From the dappled sunshine I breathe in… The gently… Blowing winds That soothe me Like a mother, around her child I breathe in… The sounds of laughter Pure and pretty Like the golden-green butterfly I’m always after I breathe in… The closeness, I have always shared With people, Who almost knew me, Almost cared I breathe in… The comfort Of my home, The safe walls, The scents of childhood On the pillows I breathe in…the silence Of my own heart Aching with tenderness… With memories.. Of home I breathe… in… The fragrance Of love, and moist sand The one… His roses left… On both my hands And I just keep on breathing Every moment As much as I can Preserving it, in my body For the day It can’t So I breathe in.. Once again.. Feeling life’s energy Fizzing through my cells Never knowing What awaits me Or what’s going to happen to me.. Next I breathe in This moment… Knowing it’s either life Or it’s death I close my eyes, And breathe in Just believing in myself.
