Breath of Life

Stealing time and happiness
In nooks and crannies
In seconds and moments
In strange places
In subtle ways

A touch
A song
A glance
A smile

Every so often
A shared exchange
That makes the wait worthwhile

What we share
The only thing in the world
That's just for us
Fleeting in one way,
But forever in another.

Driving home
I could feel your breath in my mouth
And it took me higher
Than any drug has or could.

You touch my heart through walls.
