Ballad of the Breathless
------------------------------
I could but you wouldn’t want me to
I would but it’d make me too much like you
So I do the tame thing
that gets me through the change of the day
The pains I amuse today,
cause tomorrow I sustain,
this breathless fighter
goes away.
I never saw it this way.
Somehow I thought you’d end up with…
The fight you see today
The breathless one
You’ll never see again.
Time to pretend
Never again
my so called friend
in the end
maybe
I’ll catch my breath
by then…
This was a different side of you. One that tends to bust out from behind the curtains every once in a while. Shows the depth of your heart....and compliments the strength of your mind.
This was written rather beautifully. It had elegance to it...yet in a unique way. The breathless one...... you will see her again. You can see her each day when you allow your mind to explore to a place in which she once stood, and will forever stay standing.
Nothing in this write needed anything changed in my perspective. I followed along with it quite well. I think that I felt the rhythm just as much as I felt the words that went with it.
