Learnig to Breathe Again

by Jeremy Edmondson   Nov 29, 2005


I really can say it any other way
It was on that day that you knocked the breath from me
Your beauty floored me
And your intelligence was astonishing
You truly are the reason I breathe
So what do I do when you are taken away?
To suffocate for you would not be a mistake I would give up life in an instant
Just to see one faint smile come to your face
To see happiness that rivals the one when I had you that day
Breathing became so hard not to long ago
I will breathe steady then I will choke
I start to talk and do not have the breath to speak
I have tried and tried
Yet I still can not breathe
With you things were so much easier and now that you gone
I am choking
I am dying
Yet I still have faith that you come one day with a smile
The same smile that thought me how to breathe so easy so long ago
There will be many that try to resuscitate me but only one will do
And it will not be CPR that saves this life
It will only be you
