Ah, yes, that breath.
The breath that keeps you alive—the breath that allows you to exist.
And yes, that is my wish—that you exist.
That breath you need to live, you share with me.
In time with your heart, it flows between us.
Breathing in, breathing out: breath used, breath given, breath shared.
It never cools, it never escapes—our lips imprison it.
And with every breath, you exist.
And with every breath, I am kept alive by your being.
I inhale it, this breath of your life—so warm, so sweet, so necessary.
Ah, this breath, it comes from deep inside you, and I breathe it deep into myself.
And in this way you share with me the breath that is essential to your existence.
And it is essential to me.
And I live because of it.
