Breathe Because It's Necessary.

Breathe Because It's Necessary.

A Poem by Allie
"

Well, this is mainly about me thinking of my mom. She died when I was six. And just the feelings about it coming back again.

"

I breathe because it's necessary.
I laugh so I won't cry.
I speak so I won't scream,
But I'm quiet so I might disguise
That I,
Smile so I won't frown.
I have stitches so I won't bleed.
I guard my heart with my life,
For it's broken and obsolete.
I lay awake so I won't sleep.
I don't sleep to be rid of dream.
I see because I have to...
That I'm careless, and still empty.
I walk because I need to
So that I won't crawl.
But yet I still do all of these things
When my backs against the wall...
So now I,
Breathe because I want to.
But won't stop because she's gone.
I know she wouldn't want that.
I know her soul has passed on.
Lay rest in loving memory.
I take each breath only for you.
I know I'll be with you someday...
But that someday,
It won't be soon...
