Untitled # 2

the first time I breathed
I mean truly breathed
to know what breathing is
and all it can be

the first time that I breathed
to know what life's about
the first time that I breathed
was into your mouth

a breath upon which love can grow
the breath of life, the breath of love
a breath that only lovers know
and all others only dream of

your lips met mine, our tongues entwined
the air in your lungs flowed into mine
and then returned, still feeling fine
shared breathing into the divine
sweet time feeling sublime

the first time I breathed
and knew all breathing could be
was the first time
you breathed into me
