Two-Breaths Walking
This page is the first to track the history
of my growing list of regrets of you The way to hold you close to me I'll walk on these two legs to find you The way to not stay all lonely, I'll breathe in time, keeping pace to- "Hey, mama, I found this guy I might be falling in love with…" "I'll cheer you on!" Now let's go Hey, just who are you depending on? Are you still just an infant? Helpless, lost, and naive too. Have you been learning how to read my lips? "Papa, Mama, Nina" "You're doing great, keep it up! I'm going, but it's okay" Wait, hey, isn't that odd? But the way to hold you close in my embrace, why are these hands that I had raised looking like they just had hurt you so, you look pained from head to toe… All the words I had learned causing pain though I tried so hard to, they cut right through you, until your life was cut up in two “Ah, if you can, sometime before your knife cuts through, sew my lips onto sew your lips on too, just shut up and don’t pull apart” And with one kiss we’ll live off of each other’s breath the air we breathe will be the same our words don’t even mean a thing they’ll all just melt away in our saliva Hey, who’s breath are you breathing in now? Two breaths in one sharing the air You don’t need words to express love, but you can try it anyway I’ll be with you, I’m here to stay, forever your oxygen tank I’ll draw all of the words forever until death do us part |
