Air Isn't Everything



An idea, a memory, a thought.

Things wort more than air.

Love.

A whisper, a smile, a tender look.

Things more valuable than the oxygen in or lungs.

What is the point of living a sullen life wthout hopes and dreams?

A chant,  a prayer, a wish.

Things life-giving and so powerful.

All I need is a dream.

A hope to hold on to.

Air isn't everything
