I lived on piercing air, with each breath
forcing itself into my lungs
I was a slave to life, being held captive
in my own mind until I met you.
You released me from this mortal mesh,
you taught me how to swim in this sea of sadness.
For this, I can promise you one thing,
despite how many times I’ve lost my sanity
and lost my ways
I promise
I will never lose
your heart.
I hope the hopeful backdrop of this piece despite all the sadness and hardship. Stay strong! Your writing is wonderful!
