Breathe

While you are empty, empty of you, meaningless, empty of emotions, you sharpen your teeth, you lick your lips. You want to approach me, but you are afraid that I would run away. As soon as you lay your hand on my neck, I am tamed. Your eyes make me bet to defy reality, to not let the weather, wind, air, or atmosphere tell us what to do, what to live, what to breathe. So, my breath swears to let you go where others do not go. Take everything without asking. Go ahead and bite me. Swallow everything. Show me animality human beings have. Be violent, be alive and burn. Burn your skin and bones to my contact.


So finally, you let yourself live. You pull out from my mouth the air that was missing from your breath. You lose your hands in my messy hair forgetting your daily order. You smell on my body all the odors that you breathed before. You bite my breasts and feed yourself with the flesh missing from your life. You find between my legs the way to follow. Then you become me and you do not know who you are. I am going blind. I could scream. My voice has not the power of what is happening. You suck me whole. You take from me all what you have missed before. Then I realized all the power you have just drawn from me. I abandon myself and offer you without fear, shame, and calculation. It is thunder, lightning, which destroys everything around. Everything is empty. You do not want to stop. My eyes beg you not to inflict the suffering of abandon. Stay. Here. Inside. You fight with reality. My skin rubs on yours. As stones shocked, we make fire.


When reality catches you up, you resist and seek strength in my eyes. Exhausted, you let it go. You lose all, you release all. You feel it is a small break that hurts you. But you know: You know I gave you everything. I am filled of you. You are filled of me. The fire consumed keeps us in warm air. Smoothly, the world takes back its place. Now, I am printed by your passage. Now you can no longer survive without feeding yourself from me. From now on, it will be you with me and me with you.
