A Single Breath

A Single Breath

 

Without any doubt at all

He said

There is another world

Out there

A world of wonder wind

And wild

So then without a single

Word

She stole from him a

Gasp and sigh

Then kissed them back

To him

Before she smiled 

And waved

Then bid a fond goodbye

I seem to be fixated with the phrase that everything is borrowed these days Nev, but that is what I hear from your words, most likely from the times in life that I thought one and one was two, but wasn't one of the ones I thought I was and paths diverged without much of a warning at all. Leaves all those warm and fuzzy feelings less than warm, but fuzzier as time goes by.
Expecting novel's and ending up with drabble or micro reads at best. Sigh, and sometimes phew too 😊

Your poem expresses the wild spirit that used to reside in me, most of my life. This is exactly the kind of almost non-existent invitation I would perceive in someone else’s words, always interpreted as an invitation to hit the road, or so I thought. Some people say “go away” and don’t really mean it. But if anyone ever said that to me, I was so gone, there was only a wave followed by dust billows. I love this poem. It takes me back to an ancient relic that still throbs at times (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[Neville]

You still have that spirit in ya... you/we just express ourselves differently these days... it happens...Many thank you's Margie......Neville

A chance encounter. A fleeting love. Some times there are sweet memories that never had a chance to go bitter.
As always your writing enchants me, and you rarely leave something behind to correct

[Neville]

You are too kind and you are spot on with your analysis too........bless ya..... Neville

[Chris Shaw]

This sounds like a break up to me and perhaps one that wasn't quite fully anticipated. Goodbyes are always painful. Nicely penned Neville.

[Neville]

Very kind of you to say my dear, cheers... Neville
