Each Breath

Each Breath I Take



In my dreams last night


I heard her voice…


I had been shedding my skin


To grow new defenses, but


She found me vulnerable,


Visceral, open, undefended.



Now I will never grow a skin


Thick enough to keep her out…


She seeped into my pores,


Took over my breathing,


Heated my blood.


She is in me now.


Each breath I take


She tells me that.
