Air and Love

My soul
could feel the wind'��s absence
it was as if
there was no air to breathe
no rush of life
to lift me up to the heavens

My soul
could feel the emptiness
even though my heart
continued to beat
as if life
was as it should be

And I ask myself how

How
and why
screaming because of the pain
and yet the truth is
I don'��t want to know . . .
the answer is irrelevant
and I don'��t want to continue
contemplating our memories either
because it hurts so much
yet I can'��t help but remember
your breath
gently reminding me with the kiss of life
what love felt like

"if you tell the truth, it becomes a part of your past. If you lie, it becomes a part of your future'....enjoy your day.
