How to Survive

I know you

you only want for the sake of having

and you only breath for the sake of surviving

every inhale should fill you with glitter and wonder

every exhale with the insistence of an alarm clock

alerting every soul and spirit that you are 

here

and no

your 'here' is not to be limited like they want you to believe

like the fiery depths of your passions and fears

and the explosive expansiveness of the songs you love and your laughter

your 'here' is not to be confined

your body not to be loathed

and your spirit not to be dampened by the saliva of those who don't believe in the stars in your eyes

j.a.

your 'here' is not to be limited like they want you to believe
your 'here' is not to be confined
your body not to be loathed...

Touching Lines! It's first time that I read something like this on cafe's site.. something different, something unique... full of magnificence. I'd be looking forward to reading you stuffs!

I think that it is a beautiful poem written to touch on the very fabric of our existence as humans.

While speaking this to myself, I did have to stop and reread portions of the sentences because the words contained felt abstract to actual purpose of the poem. (EX: saliva)

Overall, beautiful none-the-less; I'll go 90/100

Also, if you could return the favor by reviewing something from my account? Given this work, I recommend the philosophy that I am only now deciding to post, but reviews of anything will be helpful as well as sorely required.
