just breathe
staring through the light she sees what she wants
what she hopes is real
if it could ever be found
she reaches to touch it
to feel it in her fingers, in her mind and soul
yet a breath away and it’s gone
like yesterdays thoughts
she waits for it to come to her
with a blinded look she searches
maybe when it comes it will make sense
or maybe that’s a dream of better days
are the thoughts mere lies to herself?
gasping out loud she stops
the light has gone
her fingers tremble of thoughts
she closes her eyes in hope
waiting for the light she imagines it true
wishing for it not to be
a broken heart and a mind of scars
take her to the end and back
and with her cold fingers she finds the piece
that brings it all back through to her body and mind
once again she cries
for the love and blood lost
and as the surface comes clearer
she finds the moment to breathe again
one, two..
