I was blind
I was deaf
My lungs were broken
I was weak
I wanted to stay away from the pictures that i used to see
I wanted everyone; everything silenced
I wanted to stop breathing
I wanted to lose myself
You gave me your eyes so i can see
You gave me your ears so i can hear
You gave me your nose so i can breathe
You gave me your mouth so i can speak
You gave me your strength so i can lose my weakness
You looked into my heart and opened the eyes of a prisoner;
Trapped inside her own body
You listened to my stories and undid the deaf inside my head;
So i can listen to everyone excluding myself
Mouth to mouth
You breathed air into my lungs and brought me back to life again
