When you inhale deeply
You bring the universe into your body
But too many of us are taught to shallow our breath
Generational trauma can suffocate the airways
It can trigger the immune response
It can stimulate the body into fight or flight
You always fly away my love
You always fly
Either that or you sit where you are
Choking in compliant silence
As a child, whether or not you receive love from your caregivers
Is literally a matter of life or death
You develop survival tactics
You create strategies of sweetness
You contort yourself into a package
Which can be offered in exchange for safety
If you learn that your own breath
Has the potential to crack the eggshells you walk on
You will gladly choke
Asphyxiation is a small price to pay
For even a cold
Stale crumb
Of love
