I can feel the rise and fall of my chest with each breath I take
Cant feel the pain or sadness anymore
Counting back from 10, 9, 8
Just a little bit to take the edge off
Just one chance to escape

The warmth washes over me like the sun on a summer day
I can sense the “feelings” I trapped inside trying to come back out and play
But not this time, not today

This is my war to fight
My dark and light
Relive the troubles, or see constant reminders of all my sins?
The question - Who will win?

She is compassionate and sentimental
Moves with the wind, never stagnant
Always in constant motion
She feels the earth spin and the sun rise
And kisses the stars goodnight
She feels the dirt beneath her toes shifting
The earths core beats in rhythm to her heart
She has deep appreciation for harmony
And has acquiesced herself with this world
My true inner soul

Laying down and looking up
Words are forming but feel stuck
Tears pooling around my hair
My heart is aching for what once was there
Breath in - breathe out
Cold and alone, hidden tricks
Finally the words escape my lips
My voice echo’s in the empty room
You’re already gone, too soon.
Breathe in - Breathe out
Shut my eyes tight and disappear
Your presence lingers here
Convince myself this is for the best
Maybe now my heart can rest.
Just remember to Breathe in – Breathe out
