Bending Backwards

you take me in your hands and breathe
whispering "I've got you" 
I bend 
slowly
backwards
you hold me
my heart
screams through my ribs
breath entering space
closed in darkness
you 
take me farther
heart racing
mind fearing
you guiding  
with calm breath
tears rain down my cheeks
the storm outside mimicks my howling heart
inhale
exhale
trust given
darkness fills with light 
between my collar bones
connecting me
heart
voice
intellect
20 breaths
energy released
distance discovered
Gratitude offered 
you teach through touch
to open space for more
