Breathe in
Breathe out
Like the sea
Coming in
Coming out
and the sand
getting pushed away
and back in
the waves
lapping at the rocks
each shaping and eroding
until the surface is smooth enough
to see the sunlight
reflect
the morning has gone
and leaving a trace of red
in the charred sky
the end of another day

Precisely, yet, your similes add such finesse to the seemingly commonplace injunction. Lovely and subtly poignant.
