Mid-Breath
Folder:
2003 You softly touch my cheek
My breath catches in my lungs
Kiss me, no need to speak
As we begin clashing tongues
Reluctantly we pull away
And stare into each other’s eyes
There is nothing we can say
Only soft mumbles and sighs
As thoughts begin to come to mind
I noticed the breath I did not take
I take the breath I could not find
And breathe again for my own sake

My intentions
I actually meant for this poem to be read in one beathe. That is why it is so short. Also, why I named it "Mid-Breath." The "clashing tounges" was meant to imply us kissing.
But thank you for the comment. This is why I posted all my poems here. For the comments and feed back I would inevitably get. But, thank you for your comment.
Did you also notice, that the last stanza incurs its own speed?
