Breathe

No pictures or fancy fun as I try to normally post, just this: 

March 11, 2010
i need hope
it is the only thing i live on and i am dancing in it tonight
i am rejoicing in hope
running skipping hopping tralala trippingly toppling in hope tonight
every day is one day closer
closer


to breathing


to living


to starting my life anew


to waking up


breathing in ease


i am happy tonight


knowing i am hopeful

love

love
love
hold on
hope

This post is in memory of Eva who lost her fight this past weekend while waiting for her second double lung transplant, I did not know her personally but I've followed this courageous young woman for more than a year and cried at her online goodbye in February - Breathe easy, Eva, the hard part is over.
