When I first saw you, you stood before me and I breathe you in.
I took a deep breath… blew out any fears and concerns, I breathe you in, innocently, care-freely and wholeheartedly.
You held my hand and I breathe you in. I blew out every memory of any other before you and I breathe you in innocently, care-freely, lovingly, and wholeheartedly.
You rubbed against me and I breathe you in. I blew out hot mist, letting go of any weakness. I breathe you in, innocently, care-freely, lovingly, completely and wholeheartedly.
You looked into my eyes, I stared into yours and I breathe you in. I blew out my wants and needs and breathe in yours, innocently, care-freely, lovingly, completely and wholeheartedly.
I felt your pain from miles and miles away. I could even smell the salt from the sea. I breathe you in innocently, care-freely, lovingly, completely, soulfully, wholeheartedly.
Never could two be more connected or so I thought.
Now, I stand here confused and alone with your soul and scent entwined in mine, I breathe you in, but now, I’m breathless.
I can’t breathe... Instead of oxygen, my lungs are filled with toxic carbon dioxide, yet, I breathe you in and your breath is mine, innocently, care-freely, lovingly, soulfully, and wholeheartedly.
In the end, it turns out, I was yours but you were never mine – I exhale.
