the spotted or herbaceous backson

Sorry for being awol for a bit. I have been on holiday (which was nice) and I still may be off the radar for the next couple of days. Tomorrow would have been J's and my second wedding anniversary, and I am having intimations of emotional prostration. Don't worry about me, I'll be back soon and catch up with comments/messages etc. Sorry again, I just really don't have the wherewithal right now. Love to you all.

between two lungs it was released
the breath that carried me
the sigh that blew me forward

cause it was trapped
trapped between two lungs
it was trapped between two lungs

and my running feet could fly
each breath screaming
"we are all too young to die"

between two lungs it was released
the breath that passed from you to me
that flew between us as we slept
slipped from your mouth into mine it grabbed

cause it was trapped
trapped between two lungs
it was trapped between two lungs

and all the days of begging, the days of theft
no more gasping for a breath
the air has filled me head to toe
and I can see the ground far below
I have this breath and I hold it tight
and I keep it in my chest with all my might
I pray to God this breath will last
as it pushes past my lips and I--
