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
