Barely breathing
as the long day exhales
all of the thoughts roaming
around in my head
And I regret the words
uttered in a single breath,
when darkness claimed the day
and my weary mind spoke
without conferring with my heart,
saying things un-meant,
losing the one I love
And now I sit here gasping,
desperately trying to inhale
hoping that was not
*my final breath

And now I sit here gasping,
