Breath of Life 

Feelings of a day,
life sensations,
sensations i feel
In my day to day.

feelings of fear,
pain sensations,
feelings of anguish,
Love sensations.

If our life were,
Made only of these emotions,
Experienced emotions
Of these sensations!

what would not be
Of our life?
Broken life…
Life surrendered to these emotions?
