Breathe.

<b>Inhale.</b>

I've come to a conclusion. One that i didn't come across easily.
Mostly because I was too scared to come face to face with reality.
And mostly because of distractions.
Yes, you're a distraction.
Even now thinking about your kiss, tender and sweet.
And those eyes, oh how i adore those eyes...

<b>Exhale.</b>

The air is rough.
But,
Perhaps I've said too much already.

My mind keeps pacing and I find myself unable to hold still.
I'm in constant need of a fix of any sort. Even if it's you.
How foolish of me to be dependent on such unreliable sources.

Hold that thought, i need another drag.

<b>Inhale.</b>

I'm still confused.
Even though father time has been less than kind to me i still would like to take a few steps back to analyze what I've already analyzed for quite some time now.
I guess it's a good thing though.
I get to critique myself and catch my errors and trust me, they're sure as hell are errors.

I'm getting a little lightheaded.
Must be all the thoughts rushing through my head, creating some kind of rush hour traffic.
Nothing I'm not used to.

She let me cry on her shoulder tonight.
Surprise, surprise.
But i didn't feel the warmth and care in her embrace and her words were tasteless; empty promises.
I wonder if they stain her tongue and leave a bitter after taste in her mouth.
Maybe that's why she chews so much gum, to bury that taste in a spearmint coating.

Everything has gotten dark.
I don't see anymore faces and I can't feel you holding my hand.

I think I held my breath too long.

Damn, and I had so much to tell you.
I hope the curiosity serves you better than it did the cat.

I love how you put inhale and exhale inbetween. It really works for the atmosphere you're setting. More than awesome job!!
