I wish you knew
every breath of that white soldier you take
who stands by your hands
waiting to carry you closer to his nation
and further away from you
I wish you knew
what Id do to be in his place
Gently being held by your fingers
Fiercely lighting me up, igniting.
Placing me at the perfect pout of your mouth
Sucking the life out of me
With your breath you turn me
into another form
Bit by bit,
you let me go
Bit by bit,
you let me flow...
