You breathed into me A new air In which you gave my lungs A reason to expand. I know that some things aren't meant to be questioned And yet... What happened? Who knew that There is more to living Than existing; Than to breathe the same air In which we took part polluting. You, who gave air, who had life To give to those you did not know. You're the Robin Hood of Second chances. Maybe forgiveness. All I have is my humility. Let me worship you. "Oh, thank you, my Goddess.." I have not prayed since I was a child, but I will learn all over again If I have to. Give me time to adjust, to find the prayers on my tongue, to uproot my questions and behead my curious nature. For now, I must prostrate myself, and give my all to you, the answers will come in time, they always do.
