Breath

You give me A breath of fresh air, Then You take my breath away In one instant, then another, I shiver, fear, then, I feel your arms and I’m safe. Your eyes, Full of adoration, Drilling the truth into me. I blink, the world changes, yet You remain the same. As my anchor you pull me, Down, down, down. I thought I was afraid of drowning, But I was really just afraid of Sinking alone. Your hooks sink into me, Into my heart and my veins, And you whisper; ‘I’ll never let you go.’ For once, I can say back; ‘I know’.
