To Breathe...or not

         to breathe.....or not to breathe???
Easy that question seems
However not for me
For a strangler harbors
Deep within these seams

Slowly sucking time
Choking minutes that
Turn into days and months
Of gasping for breath and
Life

Drugs, upon drugs
Inhalers, steroids
Breathing machines
Yet you still try
To snuff the life
Out of me

      to breathe .....or not???
Easy that question seems
However not for me
For a strangler harbors
Deep within these seams

This rageing battle
For breath
For death
Who will win???
That remains yet to be seen!

      to breathe.....or die???
Easy that question seems
At times I wish for death
For it is to hard to breathe

Who will win???
That remains yet to be seen!
I gasp for breath
You gasp for death!

               Breath....or death

Astma has been kicking my ass since october, I lost my job and
boyfriend because of it....so bare with me, I am just venting!
                                         have fun ^Sheri^

Very good way of expressing the angst of the moment--Sometimes I think that these bad moments are what make us such darkly inspired poets.. ;)

I feel for you for what astma has done for you... life`s a bitch at times, giving a hard time to those who need it the least... but well, bad times inspire to write, too! be strong )0(
