    When it Hurts to Breathe
    When you said goodbye I took a deep breath
    I felt like my soul was sentenced to death

    I cried and I sobbed, I could not eat or sleep
    I felt very used and also so cheap

    As time passes by, I get on with my life
    My heart seems to mend and out comes the knife

    The wound is still there and always will be
    But the pain is nearly gone and…
    It no longer hurts when I breathe

    Mia, A very subtle and breathtaking (no pun intended) way to convey your feelings in a love gone wrong. I like the angst here. ginga

    You have put wonderfully into words what all of us have felt at one time or another at some point in our lives and given us hope that this too shall pass...

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
