the power of breath...

the power of breath...

A Poem by offbeat orator

stranger not is the giver of life and the owner of death,
after all, does every life not enter and exit with a breath.


linking past moments to present until there is no future left,
between start and end, each journey moves only by breath.


each emotion felt, each pleasure enjoyed, each pain beset, 
imprinted deep in our hearts and referenced in every breath.


every place travelled, every memory made, every face met, 
recorded in our minds but only accessible if we have breath.
