Say my name -- breath it like it is your last shallow, hollow breath -- rattling on your tongue like a snake -- Lost but still found, beautiful -- without plans but with purpose -- Treat it like the water you found in the desert -- like the sustenance you found when you were famished -- Treat me like you would die without me

Rattle
Say my name -- breath it like it is your last shallow, hollow breath -- rattling on your tongue like a snake -- Lost but still found, beautiful -- without plans but with purpose -- Treat it like the water you found in the desert -- like the sustenance you found when you were famished -- Treat me like you would die without me
