breathing in new life
I suppose we won’t know for sure
until we’re walking dead ourselves
and even then we’ll have doubts
until everything comes into focus
there’s a reason for everything
or so they say
but try telling that to a grieving mother
whose teenage son is forever lost
now wandering amongst the dead
it’s unknown how many
continually influence our daily lives
coming and going as they please
strolling sublimely by our side
one fact remains
we don’t know what we don’t know
such as if our effortless breathing
may be more than superficial
march two thousand twenty
