Breath

You caught my eye...

My heart raced

My breath caught

I could not look away.

My hopes

My dreams

All that I had bottled up

Rushed into my thoughts.

I had given up...

Given in

To the loneliness

I found in life.

Frustration

Irritation

Resignation

Life was empty.

But in a moment

You changed me.

Filled the empty spaces

Brought me joy.

Unasked

Undeserved

Unexpected

Complete.

Now happiness

And hope

And excitement

And life...

One moment

One heartbeat

One breath...

I'm home.
