The Moment I Breathed
Lost in Space: A Poetic Exploration of Breath, Gravity, and the Universe

The moment I breathed,
Scattered lies through the galaxy, shattered everywhere
Constellations were calmly singing
While I was slowly screaming,
Encased within a sphere of light and dark
The moment I breathe, there is no spark
The moment I breathed, there was no air,
Gasping in the chains of space’s snare
My heart had stopped, it wasn't beating
Trying to find a deeper meaning, floating,
Trapped in a cage of bubbled spikes
The moment I breathe, the clock strikes
I’ll crash right into gravity
And meet the sweet reality
Where the moment I breathe?
I find air

So surreal. Loved it! Made me feel like I was floating through space myself
Oh wow, this was absolutely stunning and deep. Loved your poem!
Take it slow, don't rush. Live every moment sincerely and cleanly, and step by step at your own pace. Such a life is the most clear-headed and touching.
