In the dark, we learn to breathe

In and out, I hear you grieve

I hear you need - But what?

I can't tell

We learn that each breath is holy

And yours sounds holiest to me

As glowing in front of us

Is the word, 'Believe'

Fading to black

And I feel you breathe – But where?

I feel your warmth, but you're not there

Are we breathing the same reality?

And can either of us truly see

This connection I perceive

As you and I, we stop

We breathe
