The lack of oxygen smothers me
Suffocation finds its way to a razor blade
Sharpness slices through my flesh
My veins give streams of blood
Blood drips in the reflection
The mirror stares in my eyes
The vision brings me to tears
Droplets merge into a river
The flood freezes on this cold winter night
The piercing season spins earth to spring
The luminescent period delivered life
Roses grant me a gasp of inhalation
The gust of air permit my existence
My viability traversed to me, you
You, took my breath away
