Moments
Like
A breath
Inhaled
Held deep
Cherished
Extended,

Oxygen
Extracted
Greedily
From
Every
Bit
Possible,

Till
The
Last
Eventual
Suffocating
Second
Can hold,

Exhaled as
A relief
A pain
Not knowing
If it will
Ever
Repeat,

But the
Next so
Immaterial
To
The one
Lived
now.

The
Extractions
Kept
As a
Precious
Timeless
Memory,

What goes
Is gone
What stays
Is unknown
The experienced
Is all
That I
Will ever
Own.
