Breath & Shadow
Winter 2012 - Vol. 9, Issue 1
"Your River"
written by
Achilleas Michailides
The waves uplift me
Into the Light I soar
Rotating and dissolving
See the tendrils of oblivion claiming me
When I die, baby, I want to become your breath
Borne on harmonies
flowing with the rhythm
of your river
Let me deep into you dive
Dilute me with your essence
merge, assimilate, incorporate
When I become reborn, baby, I want to be the blood in your veins...
Achilleas Michailides is a poet and fiction writer trying to ignore the limited mobility from his bad leg. This will be his first poetry publication. He lives over the pond, in Germany.
