every breath

With every breath
we give
we take away

With every breath
someone feels
someone heals

With every breath
has to be more than oxygen
has to be more than a means to exist

If every breath
brings me further from you

what reason is left
to breathe at all?

If every breath
does not open my heart

what reason is left
for it to keep on beating?

For everytime
i do fall
and everytime
my heart breaks

Comes every moment
that takes my breath away

Though it brings
fears with the excitement
and tears with the smiles

that is what makes
every breath... worth while.
