Breath

I wake up with a cold sweat,
I wake up with a delirious threat.
As if our world was flooded with water,
And only me and you survived this slaughter.
And above us kilometers of water waves,
And above us whales are swimming in caves.
And there isn't enough oxygen for two,
I lay here in the dark...
Listening to us breathing,
I listen to our breath
I never thought before that we
Together share just one
Breath.
I'm trying to forget how to breathe,
A minute I grant you brings me relief.
A minute of this unappreciated gas...
But you unknowingly sleep beside my body mass.
That above us kilometers of water waves,
That  above us whales are swimming in caves.
And there isn't enough oxygen for two,
I lay here in the dark...
Listening to us breathing,
I listen to our breath
I never thought before that we
Together share just one
Breath.
