"When you make peace with yourself, you make peace with the world."


I wanted to be the space between your breaths;
inhale…exhale.
I wanted to be the stillness between your thoughts,
the quiet void that encompasses my mind.
I longed to be the air traveling through your technicolor
atmosphere; I would ruffle your hair, I'd keep you alive.
I would wrap around you oh so naturally,
molding into your crystalline skin;
and all the while you would just be,
never aware of the empty spaces inside and all around you
that I was so prepared to fill.

Be happy because you'll never know when an EMT will be listening to your heart not beat.

Wow. That was so well put. The descriptions are so vivid, I can imagine everything. I can't even think of anything else to say but wow.
