Breathe

Tonight

the sun sets.

Its yellow illuminating Pikes Peak

as though this were its last chance

to show humans

its truest expression

of beauty.

What if it were you

with one last chance

or one last day:

What would you do

to die

fulfilled?

If it were me,

I’d show you a love

so deep

you would cry

spontaneous tears of joy

and you would be full as me.

In fact, here,

I’ll show it to you now

Open your heart to the sky

and breathe.
