“When I was drowning,
I learned how to breathe water.
I learned how to breathe you.”
Life has never been easy.
But that’s part of the point.
There are so many things
worth living for, yet
there are also things
that can strip the air
right out of your lungs.
Blindside you out of nowhere.
And when I was drowning,
I learned how to breathe water.

Thank you so much! Sometimes it’s the most simplistic of them that stands out the most when they’re presented alongside the piece in its entirety. 😊
