Poem :: Breathe

Breathe deeply
Forever rain wrecked 
Head down, body drenched
In a pit - a woeful wretch

Breathe deeply 
Enormous mountain 
Faraway heaven
Depressed oppression 

Breathe deeply
Soul in deep despair 
Atrocious affair 
Gasped desperate air 

Breathe deeply
Light in the tunnel 
Onto tracks...tumbled
Empty words fumbled
 
Breathe deeply 
Bright blinding white light
Lost shadowless fight
A true sorry sight 

Breathe deeply
Legs there no longer 
Mourned past pain - lingered
Child moved by stranger

Breathe deeply
Muddled clarity 
Tears in unity
Grave calamity 

Breathe breathe breathe
Rainbow to appear
Wipe the flowing tears
Stand against all fears
