Breathe

We, as humans,

Were never taught to breathe,

Neither had we been given a lesson to,

But we naturally did,

Without lessons, we just knew how to breathe by heart. 

 

Until then, 

The day of our hearts were ed with knives—

Being crumpled like a piece of white paper,

And were tossed like a trash,

It was when we forgot how to properly breathe,

And forgot that oxygen actually exists.
