breath
it feels as if time has stopped
as if i am one with the birds
i lean my head back and my
golden brown hair sparkles in the moonlight
i can smell that spring is near
i can see the cotton-ball-like creatures in the sky
begin to disappear
i open my mouth to yell into infinity
i feel my heartbeat fall into a rhythm
the motion of the swing, just like a pendulum
the dirty sneakers on my bare feet finally reach the ground
and just like that
this beautiful moment is just that
A memory.
