Killer Moments
Life.
I have it.
You have it.
Is that not amazing?
Inside of us is
A beating heart,
A strong pulse,
A gentle breath,
But what makes life,
Incredibly surreal,
Are the moments
That make the heart stop,
That make the heart rage,
That make breathing impossible.
We live for it.
Those moments
That could kill us,
Make us feel so alive.
But for those moments,
When your insides,
They burn
With agony.
Your head aches,
It's filled
With frustration,
It's just another way
Of knowing
You're alive.
That you have life.
And with living life
Comes more
Breathless,
Raging,
Impossibly,
Amazing,
Moments.
