Just Breathe.

There is a word

For when you lose a friend,

And another one

For when you lose a mate.

There’s a word

For when you lose hope,

And even one word

For when you lose your mum.

But there is no word

For when you lose a child.

No…

No words…

Not

Even

One.

No words

At all.

Emptiness all around,

And infinite melancholy.

So lets not talk.

Just close your eyes

And breathe.

Go back

To the mechanics of it:

Breathe in and fill your lungs with air,

Breathe out and take everything away.

Repeat…

Close your eyes,

Do not think,

Let the rivers flow,

All the way down to your feet.

There are no words,

But pain.

And it won’t go away…

Unless you remember,

The mechanics of life

How a flower blossoms

In cold winter,

And a toddler smiles even

When everything’s wrong.

Just like life.

It keeps on going

With all the laughs,

The colors,

The love.

Even when everything

Inside you

Feels completely

Wrong.

Just Breathe.

Eventually,

Pain,

Will hurt a bit less.

Even though

This kind of injuries,

Will never heal.

They will

Just

Stop

Bleeding…

Breathe.
