To breathe is to
Open your mind to anything
And to open your mind is to
Allow your imagination to become vulnerable

I set up these walls around me
So that when I breathe
I will be not be succumbed to falsity

But when you appear
And press your hand against my walls
Whisper to them
I allow you to enter me

Only you
No one else
And I will not let you leave

You are what fuels my imagination
You are what eases my breathing
What converts my CO2 lies into O2 beAuties

So when you want to leave
"Only for a moment" you say,
I cannot fathom why you would do such a thing

Your moment became centuries
My oxygen had been tainted
Everything
Is gone
