Share your lungs

Jun 1

Wake up in the morning, will you share your lungs with me

My back against tomorrow

I have never been alone like this

tip toe into the waking world

I’ve said a lot of things I’ve never thought of

I’ve got hurt so many times, I survived

When the lights go out

I rattle the cage

Electric shock therapy

Won’t you walk with me

10 feet back

Let’s do laps

I’ll sip your bone broth until the next visiting hours

Filling my mouth with words

A bitter taste pours out

As I bite my tongue

A soft surrender

The day tomorrow began
