tires worn

tread worn

soles torn

souls torn

will you let me mend yours?. . .

i will breathe you back to life, my love. . .

one gentle kiss grazed upon your warm skin

i want to put the life back into your eyes...

pain lives there

pain lies there

pain lies, love. . .

"don't let it fool you..."

you will breathe again...
you will live again
you will feel again
you will be sure again
you will be okay again...

take my hand, you are drowning...

i can't swim either, but if we need to  t r e a d
we tread together...

i see you from across the room...

torn between casting my gaze downward
or
embracing you with all of the life, love, and protection i feel for you...

which one do you want me to do...
