Here is the first YouTube poem in some time. It consists entirely of work from my own pen, words and art. Hope you like it and have a great Friday.

BETWEEN BREATHS --James Valvis

It’s that moment between the exhaling of one breath and the taking of the next. That is a death we all know. It happens every other second, pause between this and that, interlude between lives or loves. How was I that young man who swore till death parts us? I died in the interim, I suppose, my breath catching her in rooms where she panted other names. Later, on the beach, a wave crested, sure at its summit, then crashed, but what most frightened me was not the fury of the surge but the afterward sizzle of foam spreading along the dark winter sand, unsure the ocean could gather itself again or a new wave would swell the sea.
