 BREATHELESS   


Silent   breathe stolen in a moment of laughter footsteps   frozen in place knowing that this could be the last breath

FIGHTING TO LIVE air nowhere to be seen bits and pieces of air hard to come by words no more than whisper sounds of life slipping away Oxygen replaced with pollution lungs filled with Black Death Speechless waiting for the kingdoms of   nature to open up releasing   . A chokehold    Lungs suffering   just one more breathe taken   asthma holding life hostage   air unfound 

  Searching for the keepers of oxygen   distances away 

  Fear of talking   UNABLE TO   sustain   a touch of air asthma   vengeful   and mean spirited


Taking    air for granted   disrespecting   natures natural   kingdoms   of oxygen   trying to speak out needing   to breathe    searching  for   that  one burst of  fresh air  fear of stepping  into   the light of no return    dough  the  beauty of the crystal light  is  temping   and welcoming    this journey of life  not over yet   as I fight to breathe


   Lungs   losing the   ability   to sustain    life trying to overcome this thing called asthma  dying to breathe  like a fish out of water  fins flapping hoping  for a splash of water as do my lungs  god let me breathe  if only for one second   a splash of air   whispers  of  sounds wishing   for a miracle . Lungs collapsing   family crying wondering   if the last drop of rain has falling


Down   on this rose   as her use her last drop of oxygen   rose peddles   wintering, as do her lungs dying to breathe from lake of air. this thing called asthma  leaving these old  Lungs  breathless    as I take  the last breath of air    mother nature’s   kingdom of  oxygen  contaminated    with pollution killing me softly  black death  living in  the lungs of  this  old  breathless  body. Fighting to live if only for a short while   if   I should die tonight   god take care of all that I leave behind  show them the path of  healing let not their heart  suffer    as I sleep in  peace in  your house  glory 


If or when I surrender to this thing called asthma   heavenly father wipe   away their tears give them the know how to carry on as this thing called asthma   claims another soul 


 Body   lay silent fighting to breathe. in a world of stillness   I ‘am  a soldier  victory is mine  this thing call asthma  release me in the arms of  life,  and at that moment  my lungs were awaken  to fresh  air  a whole new  life   if only for one more day . my faith in god gave me the will to fight  my life  aren’t  finish yet  drops of air  filling  my lungs giving  up on life  I’ll never do that  im a survivor   asthma   is a silent killer    sometime we take   something  as  simple  as air for granted    


Live your life like   its golden


  Tomorrow   makes no promises   cherish the air you breathe   the life you save just maybe your own


Breathless
