Gasping

You were
Happening  
To me  
Your eyes,  
Your hair,    
The length of  
Your body  
Was  
Robbing me  
Robbing me  
Of  
My    
Last    
Breath  
And the gasping  
You had me  
Ya had me  
Double breathing  
(I was playing it off)  
As if we had  
Been crying  
Crying about  
Crying for  
Grieving for
The future  
(Yes the brick of me)  
Yet to come-  
(How’s that for a picture; the real me  
What you didn’t know)  
That’s life.  
/Don’t care  
Will take you down  
And well  
Pride can get you in trouble too/
 
{Moving forward}
