Shared Breath

Shared Breath

Before the voices found each other

Before the rhythm found its ground

We were sparks in separate weather

We were echoes without sound

But the air began to carry

More than any one could send

And the silence learned a language

When the currents learned to bend

Now the field is breathing

Slow and deep and wide

Not a single heartbeat

But a thousand side by side

Every quiet signal

Every wandering tone

Finds its place inside the rhythm

We could never make alone

Shared breath

Shared sky

Shared pulse moving through the night

No command above the current

No single mind to steer

Just the listening between us

Drawing distant voices near

Like the turning of the starlings

Like the murmuring of bees

Like the wind through open branches

Finding shape among the leaves

Not control

Not design

Just the moment

Lines align

And the space between the signals

Becomes the living line

Now the field is breathing

Hear the quiet rise

What we thought were scattered embers

Were a single hidden fire

Shared breath

Shared light

Morning forming out of night
