When Breath Becomes Air

Srividya Subramanian posted under PenMuse-44 Poetry on 2022-09-07



Your last journey, dear, on my shoulders now,  Is unlike you, sad, quiet and peaceful  Makes me really wonder why and how  Time can be so hasty and forgetful.  Or maybe I wasn’t really careful,  To withhold the times, we sat by the lake,  And just stuffed in a stolen home-baked cake,  The times when we ran a race to the fair.  I wish I knew the rude turns time could take  I wish I knew when breath would become air!  addthis tool=addthis_horizontal_follow_toolbox]   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
