Last night, I dreamt that you died And I woke with shaking lungs, And lips of pale blue My mind musing on if I wanted to continue breathing If you were not breathing too.

Apnea
Last night, I dreamt that you died And I woke with shaking lungs, And lips of pale blue My mind musing on if I wanted to continue breathing If you were not breathing too.
Apnea, in medical terminology, means "temporary cessation of breathing, especially during sleep."
