There is freedom waiting for you<br /> on the breezes of the sky,<br /> and you ask &ldquo;What if I fall?&rdquo; <br /> Oh, but my darling,<br /> what if you fly?<br /> <br /> ~Eric Hanson


His love felt so safe

that when he threw me out to the ocean

I drowned

my gargled 'I love you' s

didn't make a sound

it was there beneath the waves

I realized my mistake

I let him steal my breath

my lungs were not his to take.
