You are a soul

 .

 .

 .

 .

You don't have a soul

You are a soul

You have a body

That inhales my serene insanity

Taking the peaceful force from within me

Creating the natural act of life 

 .

You are a soul

You have a body

Yet

Why do you breathe my life with your mouth?

    now some readers will reply with a comment talking about the devil within you, satan, dragging the life out of you, they may see that and that is there vision.

    But what do I see?

    I see the image of a young girl, lying in the final moments of her existance, struggling to keep hold of her place amongst us. The 'you' you talk about, is a lifegiver, someone who is drawing from you the last point of no return into your serene insanity/peaceful force 'death', and in return, is giving with each new breath, the natural act to live, as he breaths live back into your soul from his. breathing your life with his lips, Mouth to mouth resuscitation.
