I’ve Learned; Breathe
I have no religion
only ideals
I never claimed to be anything
other than the truth
the truth as it occurs to me
from experience alone
throughout my life
I’ve been taking notes
to find my truth
I know my truth
is not your truth
but there is something universal about it
the way it all came to me
on it’s own
because I was searching.
I have no religion
my religion is truth
it’s what I believe
because it happened to me.
In my depths of despair
I always came up for air
something was always there
and when I didn’t need to breathe anymore
something else was doing it for me.
When I didn’t want to live
something else was keeping me alive
So I’ll take that as a sign
a sign of my truth
I must be here for a reason
even though I want to go
but I am in no hurry
I’ll take what you gave me
and continue to live
because I know
that’s all you have to give
is the life that I live.
