Whenever I leave you, I go out of breath.

This poem is also not mine. But I loved it once I read it and I need to share it to all my friends.

Whenever I leave you, I go out of breath
(Death must be lonely like I am)
I dream lying dreams of your love lost,
and my heart stands still inside me.
I stare at my favorite datecakes-
they would be salt to me now-
And pomegranate wine (once sweet to our lips)
bitter,bitter as birdgall.
Touching noses with you, love, your kiss alone,
and my stuttering heart speaks clear.
Breath me more of your breath, let me live!
man meant for me,
God himself gave you as his holy gift,
my love to outlast forever.
