"Poetry is thoughts that breathe, and words that burn. "
Thomas Gray


You,
You are like drowning in fire.

Your smile is going deaf of silence,
Your laugh is falling into the clouds.

A glimpse of you is waking in the dead of night,
A conversation
Is letting your words binding my lungs tighter and tighter
Until I’m choking on air.

You are like drowning in fire.

You,
You are a world of impossibilities,
Maybe only to me.

Maybe because we are the impossibility.
