Hold your breath, the world unfolds,
In silver whispers, tales retold.
Pause the rush, feel the weight,
Life’s a song we can’t recreate.
Every moment, pure and bright,
A flicker caught in morning light.
Hush the noise, still the sound,
Beauty blooms all around.
Air is thin, yet life’s so deep,
Secrets linger where we leap.
Every breath a spark, a chance,
To catch the rhythm, join the dance.
So hold it close, then let it fly,
This fragile breath, a soft goodbye.
In each heartbeat, wild and free—
Life’s a gift, a mystery.
