For The Both Of Us

NO one told me
I'm in pain
stifling my breathing.

I don't want to understand
why i scream
into my arms
so long ago
i want to breathe.

No one told me
I'm in pain stifling my screaming,
screaming at me.

Cry when it hurts
when you cant breathe.

Cry with chest wracking sobs
that surge to the very bottom
of your soul.

Expert through your fingertips
clawing your way to the
surface,
so you can breathe.
