You can catch me
In the air between breaths
Where you left me
I've been here too long
Torn between needing you
And pushing you to safety
My souls turning to dust
crushed under the weight-of my thoughts
You might find me
In the mist after a wave breaks
There
I stayed
Made a home
Torn between the laughter you spill
And the tears you shed
I'm crushing my lungs
To ensure that you smile
Catch me--
In the sharp breaths
Find me--
On the salty rocks
Dream of me--
While it's all decaying
