I Can't Breath

by: Teresa J. Lavender

By Teresa LavenderPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I can't breathe when you stand so close to me

I can't breathe I could fall down on my knees

when I look into your eyes I can't breathe

I can't sleep when you stand so close to me

I can't sleep I get lost in fantasy

when I think about your kiss I can't sleep

I don't wanna live if this is dying,

I don't wanna die if this is life

I just wanna stay here in this moment

I just wanna melt your heart with mine

I can't breathe

You caught my breathe in your mouth

you breath in as I breathe out

maybe that's what life's about

cause I can't breathe!
