I wrote this for someone and decided to publish it. I'm actually pretty proud of it =]. So here it is, a poem titled Free Radicals.
You are my breath
With each gasp, I take in free radicals
That slowly destroy me
But each one is precious
Loved
Needed
Beyond my biological needs
My breath is refreshing
And cleanses me
It gives me clarity
And patience
It is my breath that calms me
That quells the monster inside
My breath is cherished
Appreciated
Never taken for granted
The very thing that takes toxins into my lungs
Heals me,
Bequeaths me life
It is benevolent in nature
And wicked by necessity
From my first to my last
What gave me life
Sustained it
And took it away
Is you
My love.
