breaking rules

So what would you give
to breathe
after 3 minutes without air
or
to drink
after 3 days without water
or
to eat
after 3 weeks without food
and in answer
all you own
is just stuff
and yet air
is free
and shared

and I don't know about you
but it is true
that I would give everything
including myself
for a shared breath
of love
to sheath my sword
