I'll breathe for you each day,
Comfort you through all the pain,
Gently kiss your fears away,
You can turn to me and cry,
Always understand that,
I give all I'm inside,
I'll breathe,
Sinking to the memories,
Drowned in you,
I won't stop breathing
Till I get to make you my life,
Memories are faded,
Till you found me,
Till I found you,
Finding my soul,
There you are my arms,
Holding you so tight,
I'll breathe every minute,
As time rolls by,
I still keep breathing for you each day,
support your troubles,
Comfort you in my arms,
Gently kiss your fears away,
Whisper softly to me,
Softly spoken words,
From my mind,
Thinking about you and me,
Between the lines,
I want to get out
I'll lay awake awhile,
Till I'm high enough,
I can forget all those things
People put on my mind,
Let memory come,
I'll find my soul,
I'll breathe once more,
To remind myself,
I'm in love,
I won't let you,
I won't hesiate it all,
To stop from you

Nice work you got there, sweet piece. Maybe I'm not quick enough, but the last line has me kind of confused... any help?

Well, this was really good - the very first line did it for me - I think that said it all! This is one of my favorites "thoughts" for a poem...I love the whole concept of "lovers" sharing breath and stares....
