I still inhale

offering 3

By Fernando Gallegos

I lost my way
But I am not lost

I lost my smile
But I still find happiness

I can’t love
But I still do

I can’t speak
But I still scream

I can’t sing
But I still strum

I am cold
But I find warmth

I am ugly
But I’m still awake

I can’t breathe
But I still inhale
