When you breath
Do you think?
That is, about how
It's a gift, a luxury

Not a guarantee
Is this life
Unpredictable
Like a boat in a storm at sea

It confuses me
To not know
Whether to love or cry
to leave or breath

So confusing is this thing called life
For now I'll focus on the simplicity of breathing

This is about how it all comes down to the little things in life. We worry about so much stuff and in the process just get confused
