"Untitled 1"

by Dan Grayson

How many times have you been told?
Hold on to your dreams, your schemes, don't silence your screams
Or stay in her arms 
Forever and one day it seems you can't breath
And you've taken your last gasp for air.
Stay in her arms, stay in the stare that
Brought you into arms
Because now she breathes for you
