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
