It Wears Her Out…

Baby don’t shiver now…why do you shiver now…

I will try not to breathe….

I can hold my head still with my hands and my knees…

These eyes are the eyes of the old.  Shivering and bold.

I will try not to breathe….

This decision is mine, I have lived a full life and these are the eyes that….

I want you to remember.

I need…something to fly over my grave again.

I…need..something to breathe…

I will try not to burden you, I can hold these inside. I will hold my breath until all these shivers subside. Just look in my eyes.

I will try not to worry you. I have seen things that you will never see. Leave it to memory, me. I shudder to breathe.

Don’t dare me to breathe.

I

want

you

to

remember.
