Nov 2011
I shout louder than i ever have.
My vocal cords penetrating the inside of my throat as my tongue dances behind my teeth.
No longer afraid of the consequences, only breathing.
Not normal breathing, but heavy.
So thick we can almost taste it.
Inhaled in such short moments.
Moments that lead us to believe we are free in complete sync.
Dancing for hours on end and everything suddenly slows down.
Every strand of hair dances around my face like ribbon caught in the wind, never letting down and going on forever.
If only my hand could be taken and held.
I see your heart raise to the sky and return.
Every thing I feel seems to sparkle.
Every molecule of air is free.
Hold me. Breathe me. Taste me.
