D n e o a t t e h (Spaces)

Not a soul knows the fragility

 

That every couple of minutes we must come up for air

 

Yet we always seem to sink back down.

 

These walking trick candles

 

Make me feel like I'm just another wasted breath

 

My envious eyes hope to be the raindrops that collide on the windshield.

 

Acknowledging the sun, yet jealous of the sea

 

So one day, I forgot to come up for air.
