We all have our reasons for forgetting to breathe!

and I wonder
 if Jehovah held his breath
the first time his fingers touched your mould
the same way your  mother held her breath
the first time she set her eyes on your soul

We all have our reasons

 for forgetting to breathe!


So when you leave me for dead

i don't wanna cry foul 
I want you to know

I said ,'tell me everything you know!'

She said

''Being you can hurt
being you can hurt sometimes
But its the only thing that you know''


Your heart is never closing

Your warmth is never fading
your soul is ever giving
your eye is ever shining

i been watching you
i been spying from a safe place

i been watching you

sunning someone's cold

you should have seen her face

you should have seen his face

But i want to catch your fever 



I want the scratch in my throat

to forever hold you on a pedestal

being watching you bend a knee
being watching you break your back
 for her
for him


When they ask 

why your spine obeys gravity

tell them you are a seam 

that holds everything together

Being you can mend a heart
Being you can heal

Your heart is never closing
Your warmth is never fading
your soul is ever giving
your eye is ever shining



That night 

when you talked to me
you left a soothing poem in my mouth, 
and you can see some of the lines 
every time  your eyes settle here

That night 

when you talked to me
you left a soothing poem in my mouth
You have been a constant here

Be a constant here

Be my favorite hiding place
Be an open safe
pinky swear
to keep  everything safe

We all have our reasons
 for forgetting to breathe
