Respirator
I choked on the purest air and oxygen
Every step I took scraped and dragged
My eyes with bags
Filled with the death I longed for
Light shined onto me pitch black darkeness
I shut out the world and sumerged
What was left of me into the center of nothingness
Life...would be the death of me
And now Im breathing
And I'm living for the first time
Your heart is beating
Pumping life to my burst vine
A flatline was my mode of travel
Graveyard grass my choice of gravel
But now I smell, hear, feel, taste everything
And I can see the world
You breathe me life

oh wow, the last line just grabbed me BZ, that was excellent juxtaposition. Very well crafted piece from beginning to end the nature of sustaining life.
