These our things my boyfriend said to that inspired me to write a poem. He believes in an idea called breathing which someone who breathes is a type of person that doesn't just look at something but feels something. They breathe it in, they don't mindlessly stare or just see or listen. They embrace the meaning and see the feelings in the other person. It doesn't always mean music or art. It's everyone's passion.
"You can't see how I imagine you standing at a concert with people blurring past you as your just standing there gazing at the stage with glassy eyes and a twinkle of amazement and awe throughout the curves and details of your face. Really listening, really feeling. Gripping on to your shirt slightly and parting your lips as the song picks up. I see you in my head as you tell me these things like it's a movie and I don't know why but I can picture this perfect image of you lighting up. Or of you watching that girl play guitar, and how when she plays, it's apart of her. It's that magic she create, music floating around her. And every one has that with something. Some people, it's just watching them read or write, it's like such a powerful thing and you wonder in every way how they can make it look so desirable and beautiful and effortless. Even if someone juggles incredibly well xD its like it makes you stop what you're doing and just watch for hours and hours and hours of the secrets behind every movement but you know you'll never know how something can literally take your breath away and make your words slow and stutter. I feel what you're saying, and you have that skill that makes me do that. It's called laying there and breathing"
