a suggestion;

not while you still inspire me to
take
a deep
breath.


while you inspire me
to breathe.
deeply


if you tighten a poem up as much as the poem needs it you'll keep the reader longer. there still a few places where you can tighten up

Deflating and yet celebrating no need for and
the manic time, that was

is yesterday, because
I won't deflate entirely,
not while you still inspire me to
take
