Open the door
Open the windows.
Let the thinnest air in,
For I cannot breathe in.
Let me feel the breeze
Let me cherish the wind.
Allow me to swallow the air,
For I cannot breathe in.
Unclasp your fingers from
Around my neck.
Loosen your hold
From around my hips,
For I cannot breathe in.
It is raining outside.
The clouds passing by
The lightening that just went by.
I can see the shower
Trickling down the trees.
The mud dancing down the roads.
The strong winds
Blowing away the leaves.
And yet, I cannot breathe in.
