The Music of a Breath

It flows to the top as you take it in
and comes softley back down
as you let go

it waits for the moment
to release from the hit
and lets all of the energy flow.

the music of your breath
is the music you can't hear
but the only song that we know

it may not have words
or a secure tempo and beat
but we all know the tune so well

its soft and its calm
like the air in our lungs
and it fills us up with breath

we may not all hear it
but we know that its there
the music that gives and takes away our breath.
