Quiet in action = inaction

I apologized for breathing air

I never really knew

That I deserved to be here too

I thought I was taking up someone else’s space

So the push and pull was in your face

Never quite comfortable

Never could let go

Never could embrace

Being in this space

With you

You encouraged me to go

It was so much easier for me to move slow

Never letting go of the rope that choked my voice You see, I never really knew

That I was supposed to be here too
