Inhale...Exhale...

Breathing
The natural thing we do
Inhale
Exhale

It seems simple enough
We don’t even think about it
Instinctively it’s just done

It all goes wrong
When that wild beauty
Comes into view

Then all memory
Of how to breathe
Is totally gone

Who I am who I was
Slips away
Like the breath in my lungs

Need that composure
To start breathing again
It’s like my life stands still

Breathe
I need to breathe
Let me breathe

So I can gather enough
Air inside me
To say a word
