Breathe
Do you mind when
I exhale,
release my mind,
pull back the
veil?
Do you mind when
I scream,
pierce the air,
shatter the dream?
Would you mind
if I broke,
threw up my hands,
went down in smoke?
Will you mind
if I jump,
stand on the brink,
my throat a lump?
And would you
mind if I died,
smothered by
the merciless
tide?
