Mourning
April 29, 2015
Inhale
Exhale
Take a deep breath
The air stops in your throat
Inhale
Exhale
Try to stay calm
In through the nose
Out through the mouth
Inhale
Exhale
Warm wetness graces your skin
Breath catching
Inhale
Exhale
Shaking fingers wipe at puffy cheeks
Little black trails leak down your face
Bottom lips trembles
Top teeth dig in
Inhale
Exhale
You’re gasping
Inhale
Exhale
You’re crying
