Breathe

Breathe

A Poem by Johanna
"

two in one day.. but it just happened. Hope you like this one. I don´t even know what it is about.. maybe just life

"

Remember the city we called our own

On the sidewalk next to millions feeling alone

Looking at the world like it was new

Remember the places we always went to

Learning about things we didn´t know

Walking in rain and snow with you


Years they pass so fast once you grow up

We've got time on our hands, but it's never enough

I made so many plans but I wish we could stop, and breathe

You're long gone, but you used to mean so much to me


Remember the feeling of happiness

On the sidewalk walking away from anything less

Looking at the future like it was clear

Thinking that together we would make it there

But love is not easy, and life is not fair

The wind brushed the sidewalks until they were bare


Years they pass so fast once you grow up

We've got time on our hands, but it's never enough

I made so many plans but I wish we could stop, and breathe

You're long gone, but you used to mean so much to me


Remember the city we never owned

But we knew each sidewalk and each memorial stone

Treading on the past that we would soon become

Looking at our reflection like we could be someone

Learning about life as we tried to live

Walking in rain and snow with so much to give


Years they pass so fast once you grow up

Our lives will not last, but we have done enough

One of the things we should have learned, was to breathe

You're long gone, but you still mean so much to me

I found it very interesting to read, sometimes the heart just speaks and we have no clue what about but it makes for a great bit of writing. Good job
