One last breath.A Poem by CierraWe're all numb to real fear until we see the life that we've pathetically played out comes back to haunt us in those few moments before our expiration. Those precious moments given to remember all of the things you have done wrong and all of the things you never actually got the chance to do. Those moments when you realize that everything you once complained about were small gifts in their own simply because you got to experience them. You realize what it means to be alive, what a special thing each and every person is given the moment they take their first breath. All of those special moments with the ones you love and the ones you wish you didn't. The influences you fell under, the chances you never took, the flaws you made. And most of all, you get one last chance to relive the moments you spend all of your life trying to reenact in your head just to gain a smile. All of this comes with your last few breaths... In, out. Never to remember again. One last breath. © 2015 CierraReviews
