I shall return to the dust
that falls through time
before my wings unfold
if I don't stop
and breathe deeper ~
than this...

feelings un eventful or unfruitful can be certain to make us feel regret...thus leaving us to turn inward and die a thousand times...unless we overcome the downward flow of time...we will never rise like a mist or fly like birds freely so be my thoughts
to your write...
thank you for your entry

Oh boy did this strike me! For I often find myself shallow breathing or stopping breathing at all as I feel constricted in my life... and I need to stop and take that breath!!
Stunning!
