Remembering How to Breathe

by Carebear of Doom   Mar 17, 2008


I breathe in
It's like the scent of you is intoxicating
I instantly become dizzy
I grab you and hold you close,
Because I'm afraid that if I let you go, you won't be there
I take another breathe
If one smell of you makes me dizzy, two makes the room spin
I start to stumble
It's hard for me to keep me balance
And then I stop breathing
It's like I've forgotten how to
I try to remember how,
But my mind is blank
All I can think about is you
"Breathe," you tell me, and I finally do

I'm still convinced that this is all a dream,
That this is all just too good to be true
I still expect me to wake up
I still expect that this is fake,
That I'm just making it all up,
That this is just a fantasy

I stop breathing again
I become light-headed
Funny, I never thought it would be this hard
Remembering how to breathe
