Starts early
With eyes still closed i breath in your name
-sometimes it's long and goes in slowly -
syl-la-ble-by-syl-la-ble,
but most often it's a sudden gasp of air

My ribcage expands
Good morning

Throughout the day i exhale-inhale you
Intending to be conscientious
Aware of the danger
Keeping the pace
Measuring the dose

Later (say around ten)
Things get out of control
Tornadoes come
Head rushes alternate with airless gaps

I fling the windows open
Let the rain in
