"Without breathing" was my guess, but I looked it up and it was "left breathless"

One of the context in which it can be used is in this type of situation: It is when you are suffering because of a strong emotion and then this makes your breath take away.

It is similar to:

it really shocked me to see her looking so thin

me impresionó mucho verla tan delgada

Also, your breath can break away because of other causes.

the blow left me breathless

el golpe me dejó sin aliento or me cortó la respiración;
