Breathe for me

Breathe for me; I am done breathing for myself.
Lift me and hold me in your arms; I have become so weak.
Open your eyes and look out to the world; it has become so unsightly to me.
Light the candles and light my world; everything has turned so grey, so bleak.
I am done crying. I am done.
Scrape away my tears, for I will not cry anymore.
No more.
Paint everything sunny yellows; I am tired of these blues.
Photograph all the happy moments for me; my mind only catches the tragedies now.
How am I to go on in this way?
Help me to walk again, catch me when I stumble; I can no longer do this alone.
I am done dying. I am done.
Tear away my scars, for I will not hurt anymore.
No more.
Blow away my imaginary kisses, and kiss me for real.
Kiss my skin and make it alive again.
I want to re-awaken, to breathe happiness again.
I don’t want to be alone any more, I am too afraid.
I am done bleeding, I am done.
Kiss away the loneliness, for I will not fight alone anymore.
No more.
Please, breathe for me.

Oh my word.
It's like you've read my mind and sucked a poem right out of it.
You've done better than I have though. I just wrote a short little one about this same feeling and... wow... you've described it so much better.
If you'd like to see what I've done with it, it's called "yearning for yellow".
I'm sure you'll find yours much, much better.
Lots of love and peace be with you,
Chelsea |

somehow I missed this but wow what a
great poem and it definitely looks as if you
can write again. For some reason i found this
inspiring... not sure if it was supposed to be
but it inspired me. I loved the last part, "kiss
away the loneliness"... wow. Good poem.
