Final Breath Poem by Jade Leven

light as air
slipping through my fingers
love is gone with useless destiny
and others that don’t matter
desperation lingers
air is light no more
heavy like you held your head
the day your heart broke
close the door
now you force the truth to trust you
within innocence we are safe
one day soon you’ll see it
going on forever,
empty space

remember this lesson
forget all the rest
spinning around, this is
our final breath
I’m getting pulled closer...
to a fate worse than death
fall back down, this is
our final breath

thin as air
slipping through my grasp
I hold your picture
in the corner of my mind
now you’ve passed
air is thin no more
getting hard to breathe
breathe in, breathe out
it’s scaring me

remember this lesson
forget all the rest
spinning around, this is
our final breath
I’m getting pulled closer...
to a fate worse than death
fall back down, this is
our final breath

I’m done with this
what about you
trapped inside
my nightmare come true

remember this lesson
forget all the rest
spinning around, this is
our final breath
I’m getting pulled closer...
to a fate worse than death
fall back down, this is
our final breath

I’m quitting this game
what about you
what about you...

light as air
slipping through my fingers
