Breathe

Jeff Free on Jan 2, 2010

The words of a man desperately in love…

In every kind of air we breathe
in every kind of place
I wouldn’t want to be there
if I couldn’t see your face

If I couldn’t feel the warmth of you
or reflect upon your eyes
so many things I’ve never said
I’ll scream them to the skies

The sky can’t comfort this love lost
and I’ll have to trust in air
to bring me once again to you
and leave me shipwrecked there

There to have a minute
just one minute more with you
the kindest air I’ll ever breathe
is air I breathe with you

Breathing the most important thing in life we need to do but take it for granted till we stop breathing some day and then everyone weeps. I am not a poet, but ready your work maybe I shall b one someday.

I liked the romantic angle in this limerick.

Keep it up. Congrats
