breathing

When my life was drifting,
Like a broken branch in the river
You made me feel rooted again
In a beautiful way, not tied
but connected again to life, inspired

and every moment, I see you
the light in my heart glows brighter, still
and every tale I tell, for gain
in your subconscious it imprints itself
like fishes emerging to greet the sun

and this doubt we keep transferring
to each other, passing the baton
and running around the cycle,
turning back to the same place
bleeding chaos into this simple clarity

amuses me and ridicules me
and makes me forget the real me
so precious this, others may say
but I take it for granted
like leaves wrapped around the fruit
