You were the shooting star
I hitched my dreams to.
Ephemeral, a rainbow
doused by the blinding sun.
Youth was not kind to
these dreams. I was not
kind to my youth.
Fighting for air, crying
for just one breath,
It was almost the end.
Then you were there.
A flutter, oh, sweet hope.
Your first cry was my first breath.
