Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomorrow is ours to win or lose. - Lyndon B. Johnson


One morning I woke up and I was no longer there
There was a crease in the sheets where I usually lay
Where was my body?
I tried to move my arms and legs
But found that I had none

I am nothing
I am everything
I am a breath of air

I am a lover’s sigh
I am passive gestures of disappointment
I am muted condolences at a funeral

I am a shouting match, all rage and passion

I fill the corners of every room

I live in your lungs

I am nothing
I am everything
I am a breath of air

I don’t know what I am
