[B R E A T H E]

i can’t breathe
when did you last hear me sing
or laugh
or simply sigh

audio
is all I have
portal to another time
I smile, lips sewn together tight

take the oxygen, it’s all yours
wouldn’t need it anyway
breathing is goddamn overrated
just you laugh, I hope you choke on it

it suffocates me
dry tears and white noise
something simple as a song
the weight on my chest

i remember because it reeminded me
of when we breathed air instead of poison
I can’t breathe
i cant breathe
