Lungs of Love

how could you my love?

actually

how dare you

occupy my thoughts

like air occupies my lungs

the only difference is

i didn't need you to live

before that day 

you made your way into my mind

or did i?

maybe

you were the last bit of air i needed

to know what it's like to breathe

to live

to know what it's like

to have my lungs feel full

but with it

came the burden thought

my dear you taught me

what it's like to breathe

but now the only air i breathe is you
